remaining in the tank.

When the ignition switch is in the “LOCK” or “ACC” po-

sition, the fuel gauge shows “E” even if the fuel tank

contains fuel.

The gauge may move slightly during braking, turning

or acceleration due to fuel level movement in the tank.

If you press the trip knob while the ignition switch is in

the “LOCK” position, the fuel gauge’s dial, needle, and

rim will light up and the needle will indicate the amount

of fuel remaining in the tank.

If, while the fuel gauge needle is indicating the amount

of fuel remaining in the tank, you (a) do not press the

trip knob for 10 seconds or (b) open and close the driv-

er’s door, the fuel gauge needle will drop to the “E” po-

sition and the dial, needle, and rim will go off.

The rim of the fuel gauge flashes five time when the

amount of remaining fuel reaches 2.6 US gal (10 liters,

2.2 lmp gal).

If you turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” position

and back to the “ON” position, the rim will again flash

five times.
