NOTE:
The values of fuel consumption and driving
range shown in the display are affected by
conditions such as the following;the approximate distance you can drive until
the fuel gauge indicates “E” based current
driving conditions.
When the low fuel warning light comes on,
the display “—-” will appear.
If the low fuel warning light comes on, fill
the fuel tank immediately regardless of the
value of driving range shown in the display.
