Fuel Gauge

Metric

English

The fuel gauge indicates about how
much fuel is left when the ignition is
turned to ON/RUN.

When the tank nears empty, the low
fuel warning light will come on.
There is still a little fuel left, but the
vehicle's fuel tank should be filled
soon. See Low Fuel Warning Light
on page 5‑20
for more information.

An arrow on the fuel gauge
indicates the side of the vehicle
the fuel door is located.

Here are four things that some
owners ask about. None of these
show a problem with the fuel gauge:

.

At the service 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 may 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 indicator moves a little when
turning a corner or speeding up.

.

The gauge goes back to empty
when the ignition is turned off.
