Regardless of display mode chosen, when you use the SelectShift Automatic™ trans-mission (SST), the cluster will change to the round tachometer if not already selected.
XXX mi (km) to empty
Shows approximate fuel level before thefuel tank reaches empty. The value isdynamic and can change (raise or lower)depending on driving style.
Fuel gauge
Switch the ignition on. The fuel gaugeindicates approximately how much fuel isin the fuel tank. The arrow next to the fuelpump symbol shows the fuel filler doorside of your vehicle. When the fuel levelbecomes low, the level indicator changesto amber. When the fuel level becomescritically low, the level indicator changesto red.
Note:The fuel gauge level may vary slightlywhen your vehicle is moving or when drivingon a slope.
Note:When a MyKey is in use, low fuelwarnings display earlier.
Round tachometer
Indicates the engine speed in revolutionsper minute. Driving with your tachometerpointer continuously at the top of the scalemay damage the engine. During SelectShiftAutomatic™ transmission (SST) use, thecurrently selected gear appears in thedisplay.
Engine coolant temperature gauge
Indicates engine coolant temperature. Atnormal operating temperature, the levelindicator is in the normal range. If theengine coolant temperature exceeds thenormal range, stop your vehicle as soon assafely possible, switch off the engine andlet the engine cool.

5. Insert a fuel pump nozzle or the fuelfiller funnel provided with your vehiclein to the fuel tank filler pipe opening.This action should dislodge any debristhat may be preventing the fuel fillerinlet from fully closing.
Note: If this action corrects the problemthe message may not reset immediately. Ifthe message remains and the service enginesoon warning lamp appears in theinformation display, have your vehiclechecked as soon as possible.
FUEL CONSUMPTION
The advertised capacity is the indicatedcapacity and the empty reserve combined.In addition, the fuel tank contains an emptyreserve. Empty reserve is the amount offuel in the fuel tank after the fuel gaugeindicates empty.
Note:The amount of fuel in the emptyreserve varies and should not be relied uponto increase driving range.
•The usable capacity of the fuel tank isthe amount of fuel that you can add tothe fuel tank when the fuel gaugeindicates empty, before the first fuelfiller nozzle automatic shutoff event.
•The advertised capacity is equal to thevolumetric difference between actualfuel fill before the first fuel filler nozzleautomatic shutoff event and the fuelquantity when the fuel gauge indicatesempty. See Capacities andSpecifications (page 297). It is theusable capacity minus the emptyreserve.
•Due to the empty reserve, you may beable to add more fuel than theadvertised capacity of the fuel tankwhen the fuel gauge indicates empty.
Filling the Fuel Tank
For consistent results when refueling:
•Turn the ignition off before fueling; aninaccurate reading results if the engineis left running.
•Use the same fill rate(low-medium-high) each time the tankis filled.
•Allow no more than one automaticshut-off when refueling.
Results are most accurate when the fillingmethod is consistent.
Calculating Fuel Economy
Do not measure fuel economy during thefirst 1,000 mi (1,600 km) of driving (this isyour engine’s break-in period). A moreaccurate measurement is obtained after2,000 mi (3,200 km) to 3,000 mi(4,800 km). Also, fuel expense, frequencyof fill ups or fuel gauge readings are notaccurate ways to measure fuel economy.
1.Fill the fuel tank completely and recordthe initial odometer reading.
2. Each time you fill the fuel tank, recordthe amount of fuel added.
3. After at least three fill ups, fill the fueltank and record the current odometerreading.
4. Subtract your initial odometer readingfrom the current odometer reading.
To calculate L/100 km (liters per 100kilometers) fuel consumption, multiply theliters used by 100, then divide by kilometerstraveled. To calculate MPG (miles pergallon) fuel consumption, divide milestraveled by gallons used.
