Service Four-Wheel-Drive Warning Light
(If Equipped)
United States Canada
This light should come on briefly when you turn on the
ignition, as a check to show you it is working.
The SERVICE 4WD light comes on to indicate that
there may be a problem with the drive system and
service is required. Malfunctions can be indicated by the
system before any problem is apparent, which may
prevent serious damage to the vehicle. This system is
also designed to assist your service technician in
correctly diagnosing a malfunction.
Check Gages Light
United States Canada
The CHECK GAGES light will come on briefly when
you are starting the engine.
If the light comes on and stays on while you are driving,
check your coolant temperature and engine oil pressure
gages to see if they are in the warning zones.

2-90
Gate Ajar
United States Canada
If this light comes on, your liftgate or liftglass is ajar.
Try closing the liftgate or liftglass again. Never drive
with the liftgate or liftglass even partially open.
Fuel Gage
United States Canada
When the ignition is on, the fuel gage tells you about
how much fuel you have remaining.

2-91
Here are four things that some owners ask about.
None of these show a problem with your fuel gage:

At the gas station, the gas pump shuts off before the
gage reads full.

It takes a little more or less fuel to fill up than the
gage indicated. For example, the gage 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 gage moves a little when you turn a corner or
speed up.

The gage doesn't go back to empty when you turn
off the ignition.
Low Fuel Light
The light next to the fuel gage will come on briefly
when you are starting the engine.
This light comes on when the fuel tank is low on fuel.
To turn it off, add fuel to the fuel tank. See ªFuelº in
the Index.

an average of recent driving conditions. As your driving
conditions change, this data is gradually updated. Fuel

the display. Average fuel economy is how many miles
per gallon your vehicle is getting based on current and

gallon your vehicle is at the particular moment in time.
