If the low fuel warning light (1) comes on,
fill the fuel tank immediately.
When the low fuel warning light (1) comes
on, a ding sounds once to remind you to fill
the fuel.
If you do not fill the fuel, a ding sounds
every time you press the engine switch to
change the ignition mode to “ON”.
NOTE:
The activation point of the low fuel warning
light (1) varies depending on road condi-
tions (for example, slope or curve) and
driving conditions because of fuel moving
in the tank.
The mark (2) indicates that the fuel filler
door is located on the left side of the vehi-
cle.
Temperature Gauge
57L21060
When the ignition mode has been changed
to “ON” by pressing the engine switch, this
gauge indicates the engine coolant tem-
perature. Under normal driving conditions,
the indicator should stay within the normal,
acceptable temperature range between “H”
and “C”. If the indicator approaches “H”,
overheating is indicated. Follow the
instructions for engine overheating in the
“EMERGENCY SERVICE” section.
Brightness Control
57L21080
When the engine switch is pressed to
change the ignition mode to “ON”, the
instrument panel lights come on.
Your vehicle has a system to automatically
dim the brightness of the instrument panel
lights when the parking lights or headlights
are on.
You can change the brightness of the
instrument panel lights regardless of
whether the parking lights or headlights
are off or on.
To increase the brightness of the instru-
ment panel lights, turn the brightness con-
trol knob (1) clockwise.
To reduce the brightness of the instrument
panel lights, turn the brightness control
knob (1) counterclockwise.
CAUTION
Avoid driving with an extremely low
fuel level. Running out of fuel could
cause the engine to misfire, damag-
ing the catalytic converter.
CAUTION
Continuing to drive the vehicle when
engine overheating is indicated can
result in severe engine damage.
