FUEL LEVEL SENSOR UNIT
The following symptoms do not indicate a malfunction.

Depending on vehicle position or driving circumstance, the fuel in the tank shifts and the indication may
fluctuate.

If the vehicle is fueled with the ignition switch ON, the indication will update slowly.

If the vehicle is tilted when the ignition switch is turned ON, fuel in the tank may flow to one direction
resulting in a change of reading.
LOW-FUEL WARNING LAMP
Depending on vehicle posture or driving circumstances, the fuel level in the tank varies, and the warning lamp
ON timing may be changed.
1. CHECK SELF-DIAGNOSIS
