Highbeam On Light
The highbeam on light comes on
when the high-beam headlamps are
in use.
SeeHeadlamp High/Low-Beam
Changer on page 3-7for more
information.
Low Washer Fluid
Warning Light

comes on when the windshield
washer uid is low. SeeWindshield

Fuel Gage
When the ignition is on, the fuel
gage shows about how much fuel is
in the fuel tank.
An arrow on the fuel gage indicates
the side of the vehicle the fuel
door is on.
When the indicator nears empty, the
low fuel light comes on. There still
is a little fuel left, but the fuel
tank should be refueled soon. See
Low Fuel Warning Light on
page 3-34for more information.
Four things that can happen but do
not mean the fuel gage is not
functioning properly are:
At the service station, the fuel
pump shuts off before the
gage reads full.
It takes a little more or less fuel
to ll up than the fuel gage
indicates.
The gage moves a little while
turning a corner or accelerating.
The gage takes a few seconds to
stabilize after the ignition is
turned on, and goes back
to empty after the ignition is
turned off.
For the fuel tank capacity, see
Capacities and Specifications on
page 5-81.
Low Fuel Warning Light
The low fuel warning light, below
the fuel gage, comes on briey when
the engine is started.

Filling the Tank
{CAUTION
Fuel vapor burns violently and a
fuel re can cause bad injuries.
To help avoid injuries to you and
others, read and follow all the
instructions on the pump island.
Turn off the engine when you are
refueling. Do not smoke if you are
near fuel or refueling the vehicle.
Do not use cellular phones. Keep
sparks, ames, and smoking
materials away from fuel. Do not
leave the fuel pump unattended
when refueling the vehicle. This is
against the law in some places.
Do not re-enter the vehicle while
pumping fuel. Keep children away
from the fuel pump; never let
children pump fuel.Unlock the gas cap door by pressing
the door lock switch located on
the driver door trim.
The tethered fuel cap is located
behind a hinged fuel door on
the driver side of the vehicle.
To remove the fuel cap, turn it
slowly counterclockwise. The fuel
cap has a spring in it; if the cap
is released too soon, it will spring
back to the right. To avoid fuel
contact on the painted surface of
the vehicle when lling the fuel tank,
place the tethered cap on the fuel
ller door.
{CAUTION
Fuel can spray out on you if you
open the fuel cap too quickly. If
you spill fuel and then something
ignites it, you could be badly
burned. This spray can happen if
the tank is nearly full, and is more
likely in hot weather. Open the
fuel cap slowly and wait for any
hiss noise to stop. Then unscrew
the cap all the way.
Be careful not to spill fuel. Do not
top off or overll the tank and wait a
few seconds after you have
nished pumping before removing
the nozzle. Clean fuel from
painted surfaces as soon as
possible. SeeWashing Your Vehicle
on page 5-69.
When replacing the fuel cap, turn
it clockwise until it clicks. Make
sure the cap is fully installed.
The diagnostic system can
determine if the fuel cap has been
left off or improperly installed.
