24. Oil Temperature Gauge – if equipped
This gauge shows the oil temperature. The gauge pointer
will likely show higher temperatures when driving in hot
weather, up mountain grades, or in heavy stop and go
traffic. If this gauge reaches the red zone you should stop
the vehicle, shift into Neutral, and increase the engine
idle speed for 2 to 3 minutes. If the temperature reading
does not return to normal, shut OFF your engine and
allow it to cool.
NOTE: The oil temperature gauge will not illuminate
the CHECK GAGES Light.
ELECTRONIC DIGITAL CLOCK
The clock and radio each use the display panel built into
the radio. A digital readout shows the time in hours and
minutes whenever the ignition switch is in the “ON” or
“ACC” position.
When the ignition switch is in the “OFF” position, or
when the radio frequency is being displayed, time keep-
ing is accurately maintained.
Clock Setting Procedure
1. Turn the ignition switch to the “ON” or “ACC”
position. Using the point of a ballpoint pen or similar
object, press either the “H” (Hour) or “M” (Minute)
buttons on the radio. The display will show the time.
2. Press the “H” button to set hours or the “M” button to
set minutes. The time setting will increase each time you
press a button.
