Fuel Gage
Your fuel gage tells you about how
much fuel you have left, when the
ignition is on. When the gage first
indicates
E (Empty), you still have a
little fuel left, but you should get more
soon.
Here are four things that some owners
ask about. None of these show a
problem with your fuel gage:
At the gas station, the gas pump shuts
off before the gage reads
F (Full).
It takes a little more or less fuel to fill
up than the gage indicated. For
example, the gage may have indicated
the
tank was half full, but it actually
took a little more or less than half
the
tank’s capacity to fill the tank.
The gage moves a little when you turn
a corner, brake or speed up.
The gage doesn’t go back to E when
you
turn off the ignition.
For your fuel
tank capacity, see Sewice
Station Information
on the last page of
this manual.

Low Fuel Warning Light
When there is between 3 gallons
(1 1 liters) and .5 gallon (1.8 liters) of
fuel left
in the tank, the warning light
next to the fuel symbol will
go on.
This light will also come on when
you
turn on the ignition, but the engine is
not running, to show you it is working.
If it doesn’t come on as you start your
vehicle, have
it fixed right away.
