Temperature Gauge: Description and Operation

DESCRIPTION
The temperature gauge identifier, in addition to the H, C, and NORM graduations are illuminated when the cluster is powered. The H graduation is located just left of the top segment (No. 12) and the C graduation is located just left of the bottom segment (No. 1). The NORM graduation is centered vertically between the H and C graduations and two lines indicating normal range of operation.

OPERATION
Specific temperature sender resistance ranges correspond to a specific number of illuminated segments in "fill up" format. When the coolant temperature exceeds the NORM range the temperature gauge indicator will begin to flash at a one Hz rate. A one second audible tone will also be given to alert the driver of the abnormal condition. The audible alert will be repeated every five seconds.
