English
When the ignition is on, the fuel gauge
indicates about how much fuel is left in
the tank.
There is an arrow near the fuel gauge
pointing to the side of the vehicle the fuel
door is on.
When the indicator nears empty, the low
fuel light comes on. There still is a little fuel
left, but the vehicle should be refueled soon.
The fuel gauge may:
.Take a little more, or less fuel to fill up
than it indicates. For example, the gauge
may have indicated the tank is half full,
but it actually will take a little more,
or less than half the tank's capacity to fill
the tank.
.Moves a little while turning a corner,
speeding up, or braking.
.Take a few seconds to stabilize after the
ignition is turned on and goes back to
empty when the ignition is turned off.
These are normal conditions, none of which
indicate a problem with the fuel gauge.
Engine Coolant Temperature
Gauge
This gauge shows the engine coolant
temperature.
If the gauge pointer moves into the red
zone, the engine is too hot.
This reading indicates the same thing as the
warning light. It means that the engine
coolant has overheated. If the vehicle has
been operating under normal driving
conditions, pull off the road, stop the
vehicle, and turn off the engine as soon as
possible. See Engine Overheating 0255 for
more information.
Transmission Temperature Gauge
This gauge will display when the
transmission is experiencing abnormal
temperatures.
As the transmission begins to overheat, the
gauge fills to the right.
The Transmission Temperature Gauge
monitors all aspects of the transmission.
Elevated transmission temperatures may not
be reflected in the Transmission Fluid
Temperature cluster display gauge.
Messages will display to indicate the
severity of the overheating. As the gauge
fills up there will be a reduction in vehicle
performance. Once full, the transmission is
overheated and a message to stop safely
will display. Do not drive the vehicle until
the message clears. See Dual Clutch
Transmission 0195 for more information.
