battery capacity FORD RANGER 2002 2.G Owners Manual

Engine oil pressure gauge
Indicates engine oil pressure. At
normal operating temperature, the
needle will be in the normal range
(the area between the ªLº and ªHº);
if the needle goes below the normal
range, stop the vehicle as soon as
safely possible and switch off the
engine immediately. Check the oil
level. Add oil if needed (refer to
Engine oilin theMaintenance
and specificationschapter). If the
oil level is correct, have your vehicle checked at your dealership or by a
qualified technician.
Battery voltage gauge
Indicates battery voltage. If the
pointer moves and stays outside the
normal operating range (as
indicated by the arrows), have the
vehicle's electrical system checked
as soon as possible.
Fuel gauge
Displays approximately how much
fuel is in the fuel tank. The fuel
gauge may vary slightly when the
vehicle is in motion or on a grade.
When refueling the vehicle from
empty indication, the amount of fuel
that can be added will be less than
the advertised capacity due to the
reserve fuel.
The FUEL DOOR icon and arrow
indicates which side of the vehicle the fuel filler door is located.
