“LOCK” position and back to the “ON” po-

sition, the rim will again flash five times.

You will see the “

vehicle.

T Low fuel warning light
The low fuel warning light comes on when

the tank is nearly empty [Approximately

2.6 US gal (10 liters, 2.2 lmp gal)].

It only operates when the ignition switch is

in the “ON” position.

NOTE

This light does not go out unless the

tank is replenished up to an internal

fuel quantity of approximately 4.0 US

gal (15 liters, 3.3 lmp gal).

Temperature gauge

1) Normal operating range

The temperature gauge shows engine

coolant temperature when the ignition

switch is in the “ON” position.

The coolant temperature will vary in ac-

cordance with the outside temperature

and driving conditions.

We recommend that you drive moderately

until the pointer of the temperature gauge

reaches near the middle of the range. En-

gine operation is optimum with the engine

coolant at this temperature range and high

revving operation when the engine is not

warmed up enough should be avoided.

Promptly put fuel in the tank when-

ever the low fuel warning light

comes on. Engine misfires as a re-

sult of an empty tank could cause

damage to the engine.

If the pointer exceeds the normal

operating range, safely stop the ve-

hicle as soon as possible.

See the “In case of emergency” in

chapter 9.
