This indicator comes on with the
high beam headlights. For more
inf ormation, see page .This indicator comes on as a
reminder that you must ref uel soon.
This indicator also comes on with
reduced brightness when the
daytime running lights (DRL) are on
(see page ).
If this indicator comes on when you
turn the ignition switch to the ON
(II) position and release the parking
brake, it means there is a problem
withtheDRL.Theremayalsobea
problem with the high beam
headlights. Have your vehicle
checked by your dealer.
The lef t or right turn signal indicator
blinks when you signal a lane change
or turn. If an indicator does not blink
or blinks rapidly, it usually means
one of the turn signal bulbs is
burned out (see page ). Replace
the bulb as soon as possible, since
other drivers cannot see that you are
signaling.
When you press the hazard warning
button, both turn signal indicators
and all turn signals on the outside of
the vehicle f lash.
When the indicator comes on, there
is about 2.3 U.S. gal (8.6
)of fuel
remaining in the tank.
When the needle reaches E, there is
a very small amount of f uel in the
tank.
The appropriate indicator comes on
in this display if the tailgate or any
door is not closed tightly.
