Tachometer
The tachometer is located on the left side of the instrument cluster and displays engine speed up to 8,000 rpm in petrol variants and up to 6,000 rpm in diesel variants. The tachometer is controlled by the engine speed signal from the crankshaft position (CKP) sensor. This signal is transmitted via the high-speed CAN bus by the engine control module (ECM). The CJB serves as a gateway and transmits the engine speed signal to the instrument cluster via the medium-speed CAN bus. The signal is received by the instrument cluster microprocessor, which controls the tachometer.
Engine temperature gauge
The engine temperature gauge is located in the centre of the instrument cluster and is controlled by messages received via the medium speed CAN bus from the CJB. The CJB receives the engine coolant temperature (ECT) signal from the ECM via the high speed CAN bus when the vehicle enters power mode 6 (ignition on). Different needle positions correspond to different temperature values.
| Engine coolant temperature,°C (°F) | ||
| Petrol | Diesel | Arrow position |
| Ignition is off | Ignition is off | Parking gear |
| 40 (104) | 40 (104) | Cold (blue sector) |
| 75 (167) | 75 (167) | Start of normal mode |
| 119 (246) | 113 (235) | End of normal mode |
| 125 (257) | 118 (244) | Start of overheating (red segment) |
| 130 (266) | 123 (253) | End of overheating |
If the ECT signal rises above 118°C on diesel vehicles or 127°C on petrol vehicles, the instrument cluster will illuminate the ECT high temperature warning lamp. If the instrument cluster is unable to receive the ECT signal from the CJB, the engine coolant temperature gauge will move to the edge of the overheating zone and the warning lamp will illuminate.
Fuel level indicator
The fuel gauge is located in the center of the instrument cluster and displays the volume of the fuel tank contents when the vehicle is in power mode 6. When the ignition is turned off, the gauge needle returns to its original position.

Two magnetic passive position sensors (MAPPS) are located in the saddle-type fuel tank, one on each side. The resistance values of both sensors are measured in the CJB via a series of permanent wire connections. The CJB converts both values into medium speed CAN bus messages for feed to the instrument cluster. The instrument cluster uses these two CAN messages to calculate the total amount of fuel in both sections of the tank. The instrument cluster will also smooth the total fuel value to eliminate the constant movement of the needle due to the movement of fuel in the tank.
The following table shows the approximate fuel level in the tank and the corresponding position of the arrow.
| Fuel capacity, l (US gallon) | ||
| Petrol | Diesel | Arrow position |
| 0 (0) | 0 (0) | Mechanical zero position |
| 1 (0,2) | 2,5 (0,6) | Below empty tank condition |
| 2,8 (0,7) | 3,8 (1) | Empty tank indication |
| 11,9 (3,1) | 10,3 (2,7) | Low Fuel Warning Light Turns On |
| 13,9 (3,7) | 12,3 (3,2) | Low Fuel Warning Light Off |
| 16,9 (4,5) | 16,7 (4,4) | A quarter of a tank |
| 33,8 (8,9) | 33,4 (8,8) | Half a tank |
| 50,8 (13,4) | 50 (13,2) | Three quarters of a tank |
| 66,9 (17,7) | 68 (18) | Full tank indication |
| 70,5 (18,6) | 70,5 (18,6) | Overflow |
If the instrument cluster is unable to receive a fuel level signal from the CJB, the fuel gauge needle will move to the empty position and the low fuel indicator will illuminate.
Speedometer
The speedometer is located on the right side of the dashboard and has three versions:
- Large scale - miles per hour, small scale - km/h
- Large scale - km/h, small scale - miles per hour
- Only large scale - km/h
The speedometer is controlled by signals transmitted via the medium speed bus from the CJB. The vehicle speed signal is received by the CJB from the ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) module via the high speed CAN bus and is the average of all four wheel speed sensor signals.
The speedometer also contains an odometer. For more information, refer to the chapter: Information and Message Center (413-08 Information and Message Center, Description and Function).
