GAUGES
Base instrument cluster gauges
Optional instrument cluster gauges
Fuel gauge
Displays approximately
how much fuel is in the
fuel tank (when the
key is in the ON
position). The fuel gauge may vary slightly when the
vehicle is in motion or after refueling. The ignition
should be in the OFF position while the vehicle is
being refueled. When the gauge first indicates
empty, there is a small amount of reserve fuel in the
tank. When refueling the vehicle from an empty
indication, the amount of fuel that can be added will
be less than the advertised capacity due to the
reserve fuel.

Engine coolant temperature gauge
Indicates the
temperature of the
engine coolant. At
normal operating
temperature, the needle remains within the normal
area (the area between the ªHº and ªCº). If it enters
the red section, the engine is overheating. Stop the
vehicle as soon as safely possible, switch off the
engine immediately and let the engine cool. Refer to
Engine coolantin theMaintenance and care
chapter.
Never remove the coolant reservoir cap
while the engine is running or hot.
This gauge indicates the temperature of the engine
coolant, not the coolant level. If the coolant is not at
its proper level the gauge indication will not be
accurate.
