Tachometer Energy control Fuel gauge Do not operate the engine with the
needle in the red overspeed zone of the
gauge.

Indicates the current fuel consumption
in mpg (in liters/100 km on Canadian
vehicles). This allows you to see
whether your current driving style is

Canadian models). 390us005
When you switch on the ignition, the in-
dicator lamp comes on briefly to con-
firm that the system is operational.
If the indicator lamp comes on and
stays on, there are approx.
>2.6 gallons (10 liters)
of fuel still in the tank.
Tank capacity: refer to page 187.
Certain operating conditions (such as
those encountered in mountainous ar-
eas) may cause the needle to fluctuate
slightly.
Please refuel early, as driving to
the last drop of fuel can result in
damage to the engine and/or catalytic
converter.< 390us006
