The fuel gauge
[IS14600( ALL)12/95]
The fuel gauge displays approximately how
much fuel is in the fuel tank only when the
ignition switch is ON. For proper fuel gauge
indication after adding fuel, turn the ignition
switch OFF while refueling the vehicle.
[IS14700( ALL)12/95]
The fuel gauge indicator may vary slightly when
the vehicle is in motion. The most accurate
reading is obtained with the vehicle on level
ground.
*
[IS14800( ALL)01/96]
With ignition switch OFF, the fuel gauge
indicator may drift from the ignition switch ON
position.
[IS15600( GV)12/95]
When you turn the ignition key to the ON or
ACC position, all the display segments will light
up, then go off for a second indicating the gauge
is working. Then the gauge will show you how
much fuel you have in the tank.

[IS15700( ALL)03/96]
Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge
*
[IS15800( ALL)02/96]
This gauge indicates the temperature of the
engine coolant, not the coolant level. If the
coolant is not at its proper level or mixture, the
gauge indication will not be accurate.

The fuel gauge
[IS25173( GV)03/96]
The fuel gauge tells you approximately how
many gallons/liters of fuel you have in the tank.
[IS25174( GV)03/96]
When your tank reaches 1/8 or approximately 2
gallons (8 liters), a flashing fuel pump will
appear.
[IS25175( GV)03/96]
Turn the ignition switch off while fueling to
obtain an accurate fuel gauge indication.
[IS25176( GV)03/96]
NOTE: At least 2.5 gallons (9.5 liters) of fuel
must be added for the fuel gauge to
immediately show the new level of
fuel. If less than 2.5 gallons (9.5 liters)
of fuel is added, the gauge will reach
the new level slowly.
[IS25177( GV)03/96]
If the fuel gauge displays only the top two bars
and the bottom two bars, or, if fuel remaining or
distance to empty functions display CO or CS,
then there is a problem. Take your vehicle in for
service.

[IS25180( GV)03/96]
This function shows you how many gallons
(liters) of fuel you have left in the fuel tank.
[IS25181( GV)03/96]
If your fuel level is above 20 gallons (76 liters),
the letter ªFº (full) will appear on the display.
But if your fuel level has dropped to below 1
gallon (4 liters), the letter ªEº (empty) will
appear in the display.
*
[IS25182( GV)03/96]
Because of factors like rounding of numbers and
fuel movement in the tank, your fuel gauge and
the service station fuel pump readings may
disagree slightly.
*
[IS25183( GV)03/96]
A problem is indicated if the fuel gauge bar
graph displays only the top two and bottom two
bars and the message center display for Distance
To Empty or Fuel Remaining functions display
the letters ªCOº or ªCSº. If this happens, contact
your dealer for service as soon as possible.

The odometer tells you the total number of miles
or kilometers your vehicle has been driven. If
the cluster is replaced, and the accumulated
mileage on the odometer is unknown, the
replacement cluster will have the circled ªSº
illuminated with zero miles on the odometer. If
the actual vehicle mileage can be verified, then
an authorized service center can program the
actual mileage into the odometer of the
replacement cluster. The actual mileage (if
known) or an estimated mileage (if unknown) is
shown on a label affixed on the door pillar.

Remember to turn off the ignition when filling
up with fuel. Otherwise, the display will not
show the addition of fuel for a few miles.
[IS29600( GV)12/95]
NOTE: At least 2.5 gallons (9.5 liters) of fuel
must be added for the fuel gauge to
imediately show the new level of fuel.

[IS29700( GV)12/95]
When you have approximately 50 miles (80 km)
left before you run out of fuel, the DTE function
will flash for five (5) seconds and sound a tone
for one (1) second. The message center will
remain in the DTE function until you push the
select button to change it. This low fuel warning
also happens at 25 miles (40 km), and 10 miles
(16 km).
*
[IS29800( GV)12/95]
Displayed DTE will not be equal to AVG ECON
multiplied by the FUEL REMAIN value. This is
because DTE is calculated using a method that
takes into consideration the fuel economy of the
last 500 miles (800 Km) driven.

economy. When your vehicle is not moving,
instantaneous fuel economy is displayed at 0
miles per gallon or 99 liters per 100 kilometers.
When you are moving, the display may read
