Located in the bottom of the information
display, it registers the accumulated
distance your vehicle has traveled.
Outside Air Temperature
Shows the outside air temperature.

General Information (page 89).
Engine Coolant Temperature
Gauge WARNING
Never remove the coolant reservoir
cap while the engine is running or hot.
At normal operating temperature, the
needle will remain in the center section.
Note:
Do not restart the engine until the
cause of overheating has been resolved.
If the needle enters the red section, the
engine is overheating. Stop the engine,
switch the ignition off and determine the
cause once the engine has cooled down.
See
Engine Coolant Check (page 243). Fuel Gauge
Note:
The fuel gauge level may vary slightly
when your vehicle is moving or when driving
on a slope.
Switch the ignition on. The fuel gauge will
indicate approximately how much fuel is
in the fuel tank. The arrow next to the fuel
pump symbol shows the fuel filler door
side of your vehicle.
The needle will move toward full when you
refuel your vehicle. If the needle still points
to empty after adding fuel, have your
vehicle repaired.
After refueling the needle may not always
return to exactly the same position. This is
normal.
Note: It may take a short time for the
needle to reach full after refueling and
driving. This is normal and may be due to
the slope of pavement at the service station.
Note: The fuel pumped into the tank may
differ slightly from the fuel gauge. This is
normal and may be due to the slope of
pavement at the service station.
Note: If the service station nozzle shuts off
before the tank is full, complete refueling
at a different pump.
Low Fuel Level Reminder
Vehicles with Trip Computer
A low fuel level reminder displays and
sounds when the distance to empty

for all vehicle keys.
Vehicles without Trip Computer
A low fuel level reminder displays and
sounds when the fuel gauge needle is at
1/16th.
