Fuel Gage
When the ignition is on, the fuel gage shows
approximately how much fuel is left in the tank.
The gage will first indicate E (empty) before it is out of
fuel, but the vehicle should be refueled as soon as
possible.An arrow on the fuel gage indicates the side of the
vehicle the fuel door is on.
Listed are four situations that may occur with the fuel
gage, none of these indicate a problem:
•At the gas station, the fuel pump shuts off before
the gage reads F (full).
•It takes a little more or less fuel to fill up than the
fuel 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 while turning a corner or
speed up.
•The gage does not go back to E (empty) when the
ignition is turned off. United States

Tires
In ation - Tire Pressure
Tires need the correct amount of air pressure to operate
effectively.
Notice:Do not let anyone tell you that
under-in ation or over-in ation is all right.
It is not. If your tires do not have enough air
(under-in ation), you can get the following:
Too much exing
Too much heat
Tire overloading
Premature or irregular wear
Poor handling
Reduced fuel economy
If your tires have too much air (over-in ation),
you can get the following:
Unusual wear
Poor handling
Rough ride
Needless damage from road hazards
A vehicle specific Tire and Loading Information label
is attached to your vehicle. This label shows your
vehicle’s original equipment tires and the correct
inflation pressures for your tires when they are cold.
The recommended cold tire inflation pressure, shown
on the label, is the minimum amount of air pressure
needed to support your vehicle’s maximum load carrying
capacity.
For additional information regarding how much weight
your vehicle can carry, and an example of the Tire
and Loading Information label, see “Loading Your
Vehicle” in the Index of the owner manual. How you
load your vehicle affects vehicle handling and ride
comfort. Never load your vehicle with more weight than
it was designed to carry.
When to Check
Check your tires once a month or more.
