FUEL GAGE 
fI 
I 
Your fuel gage  shows 
about  how much  fuel is 
in your  tank. 
It  works  only when  the ignition  is  in the  “RUN”  position. The 
17 bar 
segments  show the fuel  remaining  in your  tank. 
When  only one  bar  segment  still  is lit, the 
“LOW FUEC’  light will go  on. 
If the fuel  supply  gets critically  low,  none of the  bar segments  will be lit 
and  the 
“LOW FUEC’  will flash.  You should  get  fuel  immediately. 
Here  are 
a few  concerns  some owners  have had  about  the fuel gage. All 
these  situations  are normal  and indicate  nothing wrong  with  the fuel 
gage. 
The pump  at  the  gas station  shuts off before  the fuel  gage  reads “F”.

to fill  it. I 
The  gage changes when  you turn  (or  stop,or  speed  up)

The “CHANGE OIE’ light will come  on  for a few seconds as  a bulb check 
when 
you start  your  engine.  The system  probably  will  say  to change  the oil

When to Add Oil: If the oil is at or below  the ADD line, then  you’ll  need  to - 
add some  oil.  But you must  use the right  kind.  This  section  explains  what I 
kind of oil to use. For crankcase  capacity,  see “Capacities and 
Specifications” 
in the  Index. 
Just 
fill it enough  to  put the level  somewhere in the  proper  operating 
range. Push  the dipstick all the way  back in when  you’re through.
