Where is the Santana Water Temperature Gauge?

Santana does not have a water temperature gauge but only a water temperature warning light. If the water temperature is too high, it will alert the owner through the water temperature warning light. The water temperature indicator light is used to show the temperature of the coolant inside the engine, displaying different statuses through colors: blue indicates low water temperature, red indicates high water temperature, and no light means normal. The car water temperature gauge indicates whether the engine's cooling system is functioning properly and consists of a pointer, scales, and the letters 'C' and 'H'. The function of the car water temperature gauge is to indicate the temperature of the coolant in the water jacket when the engine is running, with the scale unit in Celsius. When starting the engine, the water temperature gauge should indicate no less than 50 degrees Celsius, and during normal driving, the normal reading of the water temperature gauge should be between 70 and 90 degrees Celsius.

I've been driving a Santana for long-distance trips, and the water temperature gauge is particularly important. It's located on the dashboard, usually right in front of the steering wheel, next to the speedometer or tachometer. You need to clearly see that small temperature icon, and the needle is most ideal when it's around the middle at 90 degrees. If the water temperature suddenly spikes into the red zone while driving on the highway, it indicates a cooling system issue - possibly a broken fan or low coolant level - requiring immediate slowing down and stopping to check. Don't neglect it during regular maintenance. The Santana's dashboard design is quite intuitive, making it easy to find, but remember to clean the dashboard regularly to prevent dust from affecting readings. Only when the temperature stabilizes during normal driving can you feel at ease.

When driving a Santana, I pay attention to the position of the coolant temperature gauge every day. It's located on the right side or central area of the dashboard, with clearly marked temperature scales. From a safety perspective, this gauge helps prevent engine overheating damage; if the temperature gets too high, the needle will enter the red zone, at which point it's best to stop and turn off the engine to check the cooling system. The dashboard lights should be bright enough to clearly see the gauge's position. It's recommended that owners wait a few minutes after starting the car until the needle stabilizes around 90 degrees Celsius, which is normal, and not neglect maintenance. During summer driving when overheating is more likely, if you can't locate the gauge, consult the owner's manual or ask experienced drivers - prevention is most crucial.

The Santana's temperature gauge is easy to locate on the dashboard. After turning the ignition key, look at the panel in front of the steering wheel for a small circle or bar scale marked with temperature. It displays the coolant status, normally at 90 degrees. If the needle enters the red zone, stop to check the fan or add coolant. Its position is fixed, generally in the central area, so you'll get used to it quickly—no need to worry.
