How to check the water temperature if Kia K2 doesn't have a water temperature gauge?

[OliviaRose]

Dongfeng Yueda Kia K2's water temperature gauge is a digital display located in the central LCD screen of the instrument panel. You can try pressing the instrument display toggle button to bring it up. When the water temperature is too high, a warning light will appear on the screen. Additional information: Below is an introduction about the water temperature gauge: 1. Normal water temperature: The water temperature refers to the coolant temperature. After the engine warms up, it usually displays 70-90 degrees as normal. When there is insufficient water in the coolant tank, the water temperature will rise, and it's necessary to add water at this time. If the water temperature gauge approaches the H mark or the red danger zone, and the water temperature warning light comes on in severe cases, it indicates that the engine coolant temperature is too high. 2. Working principle: The sensor of the water temperature gauge is a thermistor-type sensor fixed with threads on the engine coolant passage. The thermistor determines the current flowing through the coil winding of the water temperature gauge, thereby driving the pointer to swing.
