Fuel gauge
SU15004
The gauge works when the ignition
switch is on and indicates the approxi-
mate quantity of fuel remaining in the
tank.
Nearly fullÐNeedle at ªFº
Nearly emptyÐNeedle at ªEº
It is a good idea to keep the tank over
1/4 full.
If the fuel level approaches ªEº or the low
fuel level warning light flashes, fill the fuel
tank as soon as possible.
On inclines or curves, due to the move-
ment of fuel in the tank, the fuel gauge
needle may fluctuate or the low fuel level
warning light may come on earlier than
usual.If the fuel tank is completely empty, the
malfunction indicator lamp comes on. Fill
the fuel tank immediately.
The indicator lamp goes off after driving
several times. If the indicator lamp does
not go off, contact your Toyota dealer as
soon as possible.

gine operating temperature will vary
with changes in weather and engine
load.
The high engine coolant temperature warn-
ing light will come on when the ignition
key is turned to the ªONº position. After
a few seconds, the light will go off.
If your engine coolant temperature is cool
with the ignition switch on, the low engine

hot. If your vehicle overheats, stop your
vehicle and allow the engine to cool.
Your vehicle may overheat during severe
operating conditions, such as:

Driving up a long hill on a hot day.

Reducing speed or stopping after high
speed driving.

Idling for a long period with the air
conditioning on in stop±and±go traffic.
NOTICE
Do not remove the thermostat inthe engine cooling system as thismay cause the engine to overheat.The thermostat is designed to con-
trol the flow of coolant to keep thetemperature of the engine withinthe specified operating range.
Do not continue driving with anoverheated engine. See ªIf yourvehicle overheatsº in Section 4.

two trip meters.
1. OdometerÐShows the total distance the vehicle has been driven.
2. Two trip metersÐShows two different distances independently driven since
the last time each trip meter was set

You can use one trip meter to calculate
the fuel economy and the other to
measure the distance on each trip. All

trical power source is disconnected. 3. Trip meter reset knobÐIt can reset the
two trip meters to zero, and also
change the meter display.
