2002 Mercury Mountaineer engine oil capacity

Engineoil pressure gauge
Indicates engine oil pressure. At
normal operating temperature, the
needle will be in the normal range
(the area between the“L”and“H”);
if the needle goes below the normal
range, stop the vehicle as soon as
safely possible and switch off the
engine immediately. Check the oil
level. Add oil if needed (refer to
Engine oilin theMaintenance
and carechapter). If the oil level is correct, have your vehicle checked
at your dealership or by a qualified technician.
Fuel gauge
Displays approximately how much
fuel is in the fuel tank. The fuel
gauge may vary slightly when the
vehicle is in motion or on a grade.
When refueling the vehicle from
empty indication, the amount of fuel
that can be added will be less than
the advertised capacity due to the
reserve fuel.
The FUEL DOOR icon and arrow indicates which side of the vehicle the
fuel filler door is located.
ELECTRONIC COMPASS/TEMPERATURE DISPLAY (IF EQUIPPED)
OUTSIDE AIR TEMPERATURE
The outside temperature display is
contained in the instrument cluster
and displays all the time. If
equipped with the DEATC climate
control system, the outside
temperature will be displayed there.
To turn the display off or change the display from English to metric see
your dealer.
Compass
The compass reading may be affected when you drive near large
buildings, bridges, power lines and powerful broadcast antennas.
Magnetic or metallic objects placed in, on or near the vehicle may also
affect compass accuracy.
