how much fuel you have remaining.

Here are four things that some owners ask about. None
of these show a problem with your fuel gage:

At the gas station, the gas pump shuts off before the
gage reads full.

It takes a little more or less fuel to fill up than the
gage indicated. For example, the gage may have
indicated the tank was half full, but it actually took a
little more or less than half the tank's capacity to fill
the tank.

The gage moves a little when you turn a corner or
speed up.

The gage doesn't go back to empty when you turn
off the ignition.Low Fuel Light
United States Canada
The light next to the fuel gage will come on briefly
when you are starting the engine.
This light comes on when the fuel tank is low on fuel.
To turn it off, add fuel to the fuel tank. See ªFuelº in
the Index.

The DIC does not replace the need to maintain your
vehicle as recommended in the Maintenance Schedule
in this manual. Also, the oil change reminder will not
detect dusty conditions or engine malfunctions that may
affect the oil. If you drive in dusty areas, change your
oil after every 3,000 miles (5 000 km) or three months,
whichever occurs first, unless the DIC instructs you to
do so sooner. Also, the oil change reminder does not
measure how much oil you have in your engine. So, be
sure to check your oil level often. See ªEngine Oilº in
the Index.

Using RDS
Your audio system is equipped with a Radio Data
System (RDS). RDS mode gives you many useful new
features. With RDS, the radio can do the following:

Seek only to stations with the types of programs you
want to listen to,

seek to stations with traffic announcements,

receive announcements concerning local and
national emergencies, and

receive and display messages from radio stations.
RDS features are only available for use on FM stations
which broadcast RDS information. The RDS features of
your radio rely upon receiving specific RDS information
from these stations. These features will only work when
the RDS information is available. In rare cases, a radio
station may broadcast incorrect information that will
cause the radio features to work improperly. If this
happens, please contact the radio station.
When you are tuned to an RDS station, the station
name will appear on the display, instead of the
frequency. Most RDS stations provide their station
name, the time of day and a Program Type (PTY) for
their current programming.P-TYPE: This button is used to turn on and off
Program Type (PTY) selections. PTY and the light next
to the button will turn on. The last selected PTY will
appear on the display for five seconds.
Turn the TUNE RCL P
-TYPE control to select the PTY
you want to listen to. Press the SEEK SCAN arrows to
find radio stations for the PTY you want to listen to. The
last PTY selected will be used for seek or scan modes.
If a station with the selected PTY is not found, NONE
FOUND will appear on the display. If both P
-TYPE and
TRAF are on, the radio will search for stations with
traffic announcements and the selected PTY.
To use the P
-TYPE interrupt feature, press and hold the
P
-TYPE button until you hear a beep on the PTY you
want to interrupt on. When you are listening to a compact
disc, the last selected RDS FM station will interrupt play
if that selected program type format is broadcast.
AM FM: The AM FM button operates the alternate
frequency feature. Alternate frequency allows the radio
to switch to a stronger station with the same program
type. Press and hold AM FM for two seconds to turn
alternate frequency on. AF ON will appear on the
display. The radio may switch to stronger stations.
Press and hold AM FM again for two seconds to turn
alternate frequency off. AF OFF will appear on the
display. The radio will not switch to other stations.
