Instruments and controls
Fuel gauge
1) Low fuel warning light
The fuel gauge shows the approximate
amount of fuel remaining in the tank.
When the ignition switch is in the “LOCK”
or “ACC” position, the fuel gauge shows
“E” even if the fuel tank contains fuel.
The gauge may move slightly during brak-
ing, turning or acceleration due to fuel lev-
el movement in the tank.
NOTE
You will see the “ ” sign in the fuel
gauge meter.
This indicates that the fuel filler door
(lid) is located on the right side of the
vehicle.
Low fuel warning light
The low fuel warning light comes on when
the tank is nearly empty [Approximately
2.3 US gal (9.0 liters, 1.9 Imp 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 Imp 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.

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.
