Instruments and Controls

5-13

Here are some situations that may
occur with the fuel gauge. None of
these indicate a problem with the
fuel gauge.

.

At the gas station, the gas pump
shuts off before the gauge
reads full.

.

It takes a little more or less fuel
to fill up than the gauge
indicated. For example, the
gauge might have indicated the
tank was half full, but it actually
took a little more or less than
half the tank's capacity to fill
the tank.

.

The gauge moves a little while
turning a corner or speeding up.

.

The gauge does not go back to
empty when the ignition is
turned off.

Engine Coolant
Temperature Gauge

Metric

English

This gauge shows the engine
coolant temperature. If the gauge
pointer moves into the red area, it
means that the engine coolant has
overheated. If the vehicle has been
operated under normal driving
conditions, pull off the road, stop the
vehicle, and turn off the engine as
soon as possible.

See Engine Overheating on
page 10‑17
for more information.
