NOTE: If the light does not come on when the
TCS is depressed or if the light flashes
when you are driving, have your
vehicle serviced at the first
opportunity. If this condition persists,
damage could occur to the
transmission.

[IS14400( GV)12/95]
one third page art:0010695-A
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.

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.

Fuel Gauge
[IS25172( GV)05/96]
one third page art:0010516-B
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.

Do not set a code that presents the numbers in
sequential order, such as 1/2, 3/4, 5/6, 7/8, 9/0.
Studies show that people who idly press the
buttons usually press a sequential pattern. Also,
do not select a code that uses the same button
five times. Thieves can easily figure out these
types of codes.

[CF64500( GV)12/95]
When the ignition is turned off, the vehicle will
turn off battery voltage to the vehicle lamps as
follows:
*
[CF64600( GV)12/95]
q
Courtesy lights (lights which come on when a
door is opened): after 10 minutes.
[CF64700( GV)12/95]
q
Map/Glove compartment/Trunk/Hood
lamps: after 30 minutes.
[CF64800( GV)12/95]
q
Headlamps/Park lamps (only if headlamp
switch is left in Headlamp position): after 10
minutes.
*
[CF64900( GV)05/96]
This will prevent draining of the battery if those
lights have been left on inadvertently or if a
door is not completely closed. Battery voltage to
these lamps will be restored when the keyless
entry keypad is used, the remote entry
transmitter is used, any door is opened, the
trunk is opened, or the ignition key is turned to
the ON position.
