Tachometer
The tachometer shows engine speed in thousands of revolutions per minute (rpm).
Do not run the engine with the tachometer needle in the RED ZONE.
This may cause severe engine damage.
When the tachometer needle enters the STRIPED ZONE, this indicates to the driver that the gears should be shifted before entering the RED ZONE.
Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge

If the engine coolant temperature gauge needle is in the red range, there is the possibility of overheating. Drive slowly to reduce engine load until you can find a safe place to stop the vehicle and wait for the engine to cool down.
Refer to Overheating (Search).
