5-10 Instruments and Controls
When the ignition is on, the fuel
gauge shows about how much fuel
the vehicle has left in the fuel tank.
An arrow on the fuel gauge shows
the side of the vehicle on which the
fuel door is located.
The gauge indicates empty before
the vehicle is out of fuel, to show
that the vehicle's fuel tank should be
filled soon.
When the fuel tank is low on fuel, a
FUEL LEVEL LOW message will
appear on the Driver Information
Center (DIC). For more information
seeFuel System Messages on
page 5-36. Here are some situations that can
occur with the fuel gauge. None of
these indicate a problem with the
fuel gauge.
.At the gas station, the fuel pump
shuts off before the gauge
reads full.
.It takes a little more or less fuel
to fill up than the fuel gauge
indicated. For example, the
gauge 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 pointer on the fuel gauge is
on empty when the ignition is off.

10-16 Vehicle Care
When to Add Engine Oil
(Except Z/28)
If the oil is below the cross-hatched
area at the tip of the dipstick, add
1 L (1 qt) of the recommended oil
and then recheck the level. See
“Selecting the Right Engine Oil”in
this section for an explanation of
what kind of oil to use. For engine
oil crankcase capacity, see
Capacities and Specifications on
page 12-2.
{Caution
Do not add too much oil. Oil
levels above or below the
acceptable operating range
shown on the dipstick are harmful
(Continued)
Caution (Continued)
to the engine. If you find that you
have an oil level above the
operating range, i.e., the engine
has so much oil that the oil level
gets above the cross-hatched
area that shows the proper
operating range, the engine could
be damaged. You should drain
out the excess oil or limit driving
of the vehicle and seek a service
professional to remove the
excess amount of oil.
See Engine Compartment Overview
on page 10-6 for the location of the
engine oil fill cap.
Add enough oil to put the level
somewhere in the proper operating
range. Push the dipstick all the way
back in when through.
Checking Engine Oil (Z/28)
1. Engine Oil Dipstick
2. Engine Oil Fill Cap
It is a good idea to check the engine
oil level at each fuel fill. In order to
get an accurate reading, the vehicle
must be on level ground.
The engine oil dipstick handle is a
loop. The dipstick is on the dry
sump engine oil tank. See Engine
Compartment Overview on
page 10-6 for the location of the dry
sump engine oil tank.
