Gauge Overview for Model Year 2019 and Older Slingshot

The instrument cluster on your model year 2019 and older Slingshot includes indicator lamps (1), a speedometer (2), a multi-function display (3) and a tachometer (4).

Instrument cluster

The speedometer displays the vehicle’s speed in either miles per hour or kilometers per hour. See the Display Units section below for instructions on how to choose which unit of measurement is shown.

The tachometer displays engine speed in revolutions per minute (RPM). A red line on the face of the gauge indicates the maximum safe engine speed. Excessive engine speed can cause engine damage or failure, which could result in serious injury or death. Do not allow engine speed to exceed the red line.

Indicator Lamps

LampIndicatesCondition
Cruise control engaged iconCruise Control EngagedBefore using the cruise control, read the safety and operation procedures found in your Owner's Manual.
A B S iconAnti-Lock Brake SystemYour Slingshot Dealer can assist if this lamp remains on. When the lamp is illuminated, the anti-lock brakes will not activate, but the conventional brake system will continue to operate normally.
High beam iconHigh BeamThis lamp illuminates when the headlamp switch is set to high beam.
Turn signal iconTurn Signal/Hazard SignalsThe left turn signal is on the speedometer. The right turn signal is on the tachometer. Both arrows flash when either a turn signal or the hazard signal is activated. If a lamp fails or if there is a short circuit in the signal system, the lamp flashes at more than twice the normal rate.
Low fuel iconLow FuelThis lamp illuminates when approximately 1 gallon (3.8 liters) of fuel remains in the fuel tank.
Hot engine iconHot EngineThis lamp illuminates to indicate an overheated engine. If the indicator flashes, the overheating condition remains, and the system automatically will reduce engine power.
Check engine iconCheck EngineIf this lamp illuminates while the engine is running, promptly contact an authorized Slingshot Dealer. If abnormal engine operation is detected, the light will remain on as long as the fault condition exists. Retrieve the error codes for diagnosis. See the error code section below for more on that process. This lamp also is known as a malfunction indicator lamp (MIL).
Low battery voltage iconLow Battery VoltageThis lamp illuminates when battery voltage is low (or when voltage is above the normal range). Turn non-essential accessories off to conserve power. Make sure the charging system is operating properly.
Traction control iconTraction ControlThis lamp illuminates if the user disables traction control with the EPS Switch. More information on the EPS Switch can be found in your Owner's Manual.
E S P disabled iconESP DisabledThis lamp illuminates if the user disables the Electronic Stability Program with the ESP Switch. Always enable the ESP for normal operation. See your Owner's Manual for more.
E S P intervention iconESP InterventionThe ESP Intervention lamp flashes when the ESP is actively assisting. The lamp illuminates solid to indicate a system failure. If the lamp illuminates solid, your Slingshot Dealer can inspect the vehicle and perform service.
Brake failure iconBrake FailureThis lamp illuminates if a brake component is not operating properly. Do not operate the vehicle. Inspect brake fluid levels. Your Slingshot Dealer can inspect the vehicle and perform service.
Seat belt iconSeat BeltThe seat belt lamp illuminates whenever the key is in the ON position and the driver's seat belt is not fastened.
E P A S warning iconEPAS WarningThis lamp illuminates briefly when the key is turned to the ON position. If the ignition is left on for 5 minutes without starting the engine, the lamp illuminates to indicate that the EPAS has shut down to conserve battery power. If the lamp illuminates after starting the engine, the power steering system is inoperative. Your Slingshot Dealer can inspect the vehicle and perform service if the lamp illuminates after starting the engine.
Park brake engaged iconPark Brake EngagedThis lamp illuminates when the park brake is engaged. If it illuminates when the park brake is NOT engaged, your Slingshot Dealer can inspect the vehicle and perform service.
Low oil pressure iconLow Oil PressureThis lamp illuminates if engine oil pressure drops below safe operating pressure. If this lamp illuminates while the engine is running, turn the engine off as soon as safely possible and check the oil level. If the oil level is correct and the lamp remains on after the engine is restarted, turn the engine off immediately.
Chassis warning iconChassis WarningThe chassis warning lamp is meant for other Polaris vehicles and will not illuminate on a Slingshot.
