INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS 127
Tachometer
The tachometer displays the engine
speed in revolutions per minute (rpm).
Fuel Gauge
Balanced Configuration
When the ignition is on, the fuel
gauge indicates about how much fuel
is left in the tank.
There is an arrow near the fuel gauge
pointing to 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 vehicle should
be refueled soon. Here are four things that some owners
ask about. None of these show a
problem with the fuel gauge:
.
At the service station, the fuel
pump shuts off before the gauge
reads full.
. It takes a little more or less fuel to
fill up than the 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 gauge moves a little while
turning a corner or speeding up.
. The gauge takes a few seconds to
stabilize after the ignition is
turned on, and goes back to empty
when the ignition is turned off.
Engine Coolant
Temperature Gauge
Balanced Configuration
This gauge measures the engine
coolant temperature.
The warning area at the far end of the
gauge may appear shaded or may be
colored red.
If the pointer approaches the warning
area or the shaded thermostat symbol,
the engine may be too hot.
Under some driving conditions,
including those listed below, it is
normal for the temperature to rise
above the usual operating range and
approach the far end of the gauge:

242 DRIVING AND OPERATING
Fuel
Use the recommended fuel for proper
vehicle maintenance.
Use unleaded petrol with a posted
octane rating of 95 RON or higher.
Unleaded petrol rated at 91 RON can
be used, but acceleration and fuel
economy will be reduced, and an
audible knocking noise may be heard.
If this occurs, use petrol rated at 95
RON as soon as possible, otherwise
the engine could be damaged. If heavy
knocking is heard when using
unleaded petrol rated at 95 RON, the
engine needs service.
Caution
Do not use fuels with any of the
following conditions; doing so may
damage the vehicle and void its
warranty:. Fuel with any amount of
methanol, methylal, and
aniline. These fuels can
(Continued)
Caution (Continued)
corrode metal fuel system
parts or damage plastic and
rubber parts.
. Fuel containing metals such
as methylcyclopentadienyl
manganese tricarbonyl
(MMT), which can damage
the emissions control system
and spark plugs.
. Fuel with a posted octane
rating of less than the
recommended fuel. Using this
fuel will lower fuel economy
and performance, and may
decrease the life of the
emissions catalyst.
Fuel Additives
Gasoline should contain detergent
additives that help prevent engine and
fuel system deposits from forming.
Clean fuel injectors and intake valves
will allow the emission control system
to work properly. Some gasoline does
not contain sufficient quantities of
additives to keep fuel injectors and intake valves clean. To make up for
this lack of detergency, consult your
dealer for the GM approved additive
treatment. Add this additive to the
fuel tank at every engine oil change or
every 15 000 km (9,000 mi), whichever
occurs first.
Filling the Tank
{Warning
Fuel vapors and fuel fires burn
violently and can cause injury or
death.
. To help avoid injuries to you
and others, read and follow
all the instructions on the
fuel pump island.
. Turn off the engine when
refueling.
. Keep sparks, flames, and
smoking materials away
from fuel.
. Do not leave the fuel pump
unattended.

DRIVING AND OPERATING 243
Warning (Continued)
.Do not use a cell phone while
refueling.
. Do not reenter the vehicle
while pumping fuel.
. Keep children away from the
fuel pump and never let
children pump fuel.
. Fuel can spray out if the
refueling nozzle is inserted
too quickly. This spray can
happen if the tank is nearly
full, and is more likely in hot
weather. Insert the refueling
nozzle slowly and wait for any
hiss noise to stop prior to
beginning to flow fuel.
Locate the fuel door. The fuel gauge
has an arrow to indicate the side of
the vehicle the fuel door is on.
If equipped, the fuel door is locked
when the vehicle doors are locked.
Press
Kon the RKE transmitter to
unlock. To open the fuel door, push
and release the rearward center edge
of the door.
The vehicle has a capless refueling
system and does not have a fuel cap.
The filling nozzle must be fully
inserted and latched prior to starting
fuel flow.
{Warning
Overfilling the fuel tank by more
than three clicks of a standard fill
nozzle may cause:
. Vehicle performance issues,
including engine stalling and
damage to the fuel system.
. Fuel spills.
. Potential fuel fires.
Be careful not to spill fuel. Wait a few
seconds after you have finished
pumping before removing the nozzle.
Clean fuel from painted surfaces as
soon as possible. See Exterior
Care 0320.
{Warning
If a fire starts while you are
refueling, do not remove the nozzle.
Shut off the flow of fuel by shutting
off the pump or by notifying the
station attendant. Leave the area
immediately.

244 DRIVING AND OPERATING
Filling the Tank With a Portable
Gas Can
If the vehicle runs out of fuel and
must be filled from a portable gas can:
1. Locate the capless funneladapter from inside the vehicle.
2. Insert and latch the funnel into the capless fuel system.
{Warning
Attempting to refuel without using
the funnel adapter may cause fuel
spillage and damage the capless
fuel system. This could cause a fire
and you or others could be badly
burned and the vehicle could be
damaged. 3. Remove and clean the funnel
adapter and return to the storage
location.
Filling a Portable Fuel
Container
{Warning
Filling a portable fuel container
while it is in the vehicle can cause
fuel vapors that can ignite either by
static electricity or other means.
You or others could be badly
burned and the vehicle could be
damaged. Always:
. Use approved fuel containers.
. Remove the container from
the vehicle, trunk, or pickup
bed before filling.
. Place the container on the
ground.
. Place the nozzle inside the fill
opening of the container
before dispensing fuel, and
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
keep it in contact with the fill
opening until filling is
complete.
. Fill the container no more
than 95% full to allow for
expansion.
. Do not smoke, light matches,
or use lighters while
pumping fuel.
. Avoid using cell phones or
other electronic devices.
