This gauge indicates the approximate
amount of fuel remaining in the fuel tank.
Information
• The fuel tank capacity is given in
chapter 2.
• The fuel gauge is supplemented by a low fuel warning light, which will illuminate when the fuel tank is nearly
empty.
• On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge
pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel
warning light may come on earlier than usual due to the movement of fuel in the tank.

occupants to danger.
You must stop and obtain additional
fuel as soon as possible after the
warning light comes on or when the
gauge indicator comes close to the "E
(Empty)" level.

fuel level. Running out of fuel could
cause the engine to misfire and damage
the catalytic converter.

Before loading your vehicle, familiarize
yourself with the following terms for
