INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DESCRIPTIONS

1. Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge shows level of fuel in tank when ignition
switch is in the ON/RUN position.

2. Fuel Door Reminder

This symbol indicates the side of the vehicle
where the fuel cap is located.

3. Low Fuel Light

This indicator lights when the fuel level drops to
approximately one-eighth tank.

4. Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light

Each tire, including the spare (if provided),
should be checked monthly when cold and
inflated to the inflation pressure recommended

by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire
inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a
different size than the size indicated on the vehicle
placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should deter-
mine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)

As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been
equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when
one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illumi-
nates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as
possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving
on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to
overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also
reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect
the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.
