Fuel gauge

Once the indicator lamp stays on con-
tinuously, there are still approx.
2 gallons/8 liters of fuel in the fuel tank.

Fuel tank capacity approx.
16.6 gallons/63 liters.

Certain operating conditions, such as
those encountered in mountainous
areas, may cause the needle to fluctu-
ate slightly.

Fill the fuel tank before it is com-
pletely empty. Driving to the last

drop of fuel can prevent the engine
from operating properly and result in
damage.
