When the indicator nears empty, there is still a
little fuel left, but you should get more soon.
Here are four things owners usually ask about the
fuel gage. All these situations are normal and
do not indicate a problem with the fuel gage:
At the gas station the pump shuts off before
the gage reads full.
It takes more or less fuel to ll up than the
gage indicates. For example, the gage
reads half full, but it took more or less than
half the tank’s capacity to ll it.
The gage pointer may move while cornering,
braking or speeding up.
The gage may not indicate full when the
ignition is turned off.
Driver Information Center (DIC)
The Driver Information Center (DIC) gives
important safety and maintenance facts. When the
vehicle’s ignition is turned on, all of the DIC
lights illuminate for a few seconds and an
introductory message will appear. After this, the
DIC will begin working.
DIC Controls and Displays
(Base Level DIC)
The Driver Information Center (DIC) control
buttons and the message display screen are
located above the radio. The DIC gives important
safety and maintenance facts concerning the
vehicle. The status of many of the vehicle’s
systems along with driver personal programming
mode menus and warning messages about
the vehicle’s systems may display on the DIC
screen.
The vehicle’s transaxle position will also appear.
The buttons on the base level are trip odometer,
set/reset, and options.
