Where is the water temperature gauge located on the Teana?

The water temperature gauge on the Teana is located on the multifunction display of the instrument panel, to the left of the speedometer. The water temperature is displayed digitally, with 90 degrees being the normal operating temperature for the engine. However, it may fluctuate depending on driving conditions, but it is best to keep it around 90 degrees. Both excessively high and low water temperatures can negatively affect the engine's normal operation and performance. If the water temperature is too high, a common cause is insufficient coolant, which requires immediate replenishment. It is crucial to note that when adding coolant, the owner must choose the same brand and model of product. Otherwise, chemical reactions between different components may render the antifreeze ineffective. Additionally, coolant leaks can also lead to a decrease in coolant levels. In such cases, the owner should carefully inspect for any leaks and promptly repair them. On the other hand, if the water temperature is too low, it may indicate a malfunctioning thermostat. The thermostat determines and controls whether coolant flows into the engine water jacket based on the water temperature. When the thermostat fails, coolant continuously flows into the engine for cooling, causing the temperature to drop. This situation requires immediate repair at a 4S shop.
