When the fuel tank is low on fuel,
the FUEL LEVEL LOW message will
appear on the Driver Information
Center (DIC). For more information
see Fuel System Messages on
page 5‑39
.

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 fuel pump
shuts off before the gauge
reads full.

.

It takes a little more or less fuel
to fill up than the fuel 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 gauge goes back to empty
when the ignition is turned off.

Engine Coolant
Temperature Gauge

Metric

English

This gauge shows the engine
coolant temperature. Under normal
driving conditions the gauge will
read approximately 100°C (210°F)
or less. If the gauge pointer is near
125°C (260°F), the engine is
too hot.

It means that the engine coolant has
overheated. If the vehicle has been
operating under normal driving
conditions, pull off the road, stop the
vehicle, and turn off the engine as
soon as possible.
