Instruments and controls
„ Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge shows the approximate
amount of fuel remaining in the tank.
The gauge may move slightly during brak-
ing, turning or acceleration due to fuel lev-
el movement in the tank.
If you press the trip knob while the ignition
switch is in the “LOCK” or “ACC” position,
the fuel gauge will light up and indicate the
amount of fuel remaining in the tank.
If, while the fuel gauge is indicating the
amount of fuel remaining in the tank, you
(a) do not press the trip knob for 10 sec-
onds or (b) open and close the driver’s
door, the fuel gauge indication will go off.
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 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.
We recommend that you drive moderately
until the pointer of the temperature gauge
Do not operate the engine with the
pointer of the tachometer in the red
zone. In this range, fuel injection will
be cut by the engine control module
to protect the engine from overrev-
ving. The engine will resume run-
ning normally after the engine
speed is reduced below the red
zone.
