This gauge gives an approximate indication
of the amount of fuel in the fuel tank as shown
in figure. "P stands for full and "E" stands for
empty.
If the indicator gets in the red zone, refill the
tank as soon as possible.
Note:
This vehicle has fuel gauge of new design.
Even when the ignition switch is "OFF", the
needle will not return to "E" position but will
show the reading.

When the ignition switch is on, this gauge
indicates the engine coolant temperature.
Under normal driving conditions, the indicator
should stay within the normal, acceptable
temperature range between "H" and "C". If the
indicator approaches "H", and maintains that
reading, overheating is indicated. Follow the
instructions for engine overheating in the
EMERGENCY REMEDIES section.
CAUTION
Continuing to drive the vehicle when
engine overheating is indicated, can
result in severe engine damage.
