Trip Computer
The trip computer functions only operate
when the engine is running. See General
Information (page 69).
Fuel Gauge
Note: The fuel gauge may vary slightly
when your vehicle is moving or on a slope.
Switch the ignition on. The fuel gauge will
indicate approximately how much fuel is
left in the fuel tank. The arrow adjacent to
the fuel pump symbol indicates on which
side of your vehicle the fuel filler door is
located. The gauge is divided into four segments
and moves towards the right when you
refuel your vehicle. If the gauge remains in
the far left segment after adding fuel, this
indicates your vehicle needs service soon.
After refueling, some variability in gauge
position is normal:
•
It may take a short time for the gauge
to reach full after leaving the gas
station. This is normal and depends
upon the slope of pavement at the gas
station.
• The fuel amount dispensed into the
tank is a little less or more than the
gauge indicated. This is normal and
depends upon the slope of pavement
at the gas station.
• If the gas station nozzle shuts off
before the tank is full, try a different
gas pump nozzle.
Low Fuel Reminder
A low fuel reminder triggers when the
distance to empty value reaches
50 mi
(80 km) to empty, with additional
warnings at 25 mi (40 km), 10 mi (20 km)
and 0 mi (0 km) to empty if the message
is cleared each time.
In Track Mode, the distance to empty
warnings appear at 10% and 0% to empty
if the message is cleared each time.
After extended periods of performance
driving, your distance to empty value may
display low even after refueling. Drive your
vehicle under normal operating conditions
to recalibrate the distance to empty or
reset your trip computer.
Variations
Note: The low fuel warning and distance-to-empty warning can appear at different fuel
gauge positions depending on fuel economy conditions. This variation is normal.

ENGINE OIL DIPSTICK
MINA
MAX
B
ENGINE OIL CHECK
Note: Use a thick cloth to protect your hand
when removing the oil tank cap and dipstick.
To check the engine oil level consistently
and accurately, do the following:
1. Make sure the parking brake is on. Make
sure the transmission is in park (P) or
neutral (N).
2. Run the engine until it reaches normal operating temperature (Coolant
temperature of 190°F (87.7°C) or
higher).
3. Turn the engine off and wait two to three minutes.
4. Make sure that your vehicle is on level ground.
5. Open the rear hatch. See
Opening
and Closing the Hood (page 150).
6. Unscrew the oil tank cap to remove the
dipstick and wipe it with a clean,
lint-free cloth. See
Under Hood
Overview (page 152). 7. Replace the cap and dipstick and
remove it again to check the oil level.
See
Engine Oil Dipstick (page 153).
8. Make sure that the oil level is between
the minimum and the maximum marks.
If the oil level is at the minimum mark,
add oil immediately. See
Capacities
and Specifications (page 200).
9. If the oil level is correct, replace the cap
and dipstick and make sure it is fully
tightened.
Note: Do not remove the dipstick when the
engine is running.
Note: If the oil level is between the
maximum and minimum marks, the oil level
is acceptable. Do not add oil.
Note: The oil consumption of new engines
reaches its normal level after approximately
3,000 mi (5,000 km)
.
Note: High performance vehicles tend to
be driven in such a way the engine
experiences high speed and high load. As a
result, some oil consumption could occur
between oil changes. We recommend that
you check the oil level on a regular basis.
Adding Engine Oil WARNING:
Do not remove the
filler cap when the engine is running. WARNING:
Do not add engine oil
when the engine is hot. Hot engine oil
can burn you badly.
Note: Use a thick cloth to protect your hand
when removing the oil tank cap and dipstick.
Do not use supplemental engine oil
additives because they are unnecessary
and could lead to engine damage that may
not be covered by the vehicle Warranty.
To top up the engine oil level do the
