Metric Uplevel Shown
English Uplevel ShownWhen the ignition is on, the fuel

fuel is left in the tank.
An arrow on the fuel gauge
indicates the side of the vehicle the
fuel door is on.
When the indicator nears empty, the
low fuel light comes on. There is a

tank should be filled soon.

pump shuts off before the gauge

. It takes a little more or less fuel
to fill up than the gauge

gauge indicated the tank was

tank's capacity to fill the tank.
. The gauge moves a little while

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.
