FUEL GAUGE
The gauge indicates theapproximatefuel level
in the tank.
The gauge may move slightly during braking,
turning, acceleration, or going up or down hills.
The gauge needle returns to “0” (Empty) after
the ignition switch is pushed to the OFF posi-
tion.
Refill the fuel tank before the gauge registers
“0” (Empty).
The low fuel warning
appears on the dot
matrix liquid crystal display when the fuel level
is getting low. Refuel as soon as it is conve-
nient, preferably before the gauge reaches “0”. There will be a small reserve of fuel in the tank
when the fuel gauge needle reaches “0”.

If the vehicle runs out of fuel, themalfunction indicator light (MIL) may come
on. Refuel as soon as possible. After a few
driving trips, the
light should turn off.
If the light remains on after a few driving
trips, have the vehicle inspected by an
INFINITI retailer.
