Fuel Gauge

~1min read

This gauge shows the approximate amount of fuel remaining in the fuel tank.

✽ NOTICE

  • Refer to chapter 8 for the fuel tank capacity.
  • The fuel gauge is supplemented by the low fuel warning light, which illuminates when the fuel tank is nearly empty.
  • On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge needle may fluctuate, or the low fuel warning light may illuminate earlier than usual due to fuel movement in the tank.

WARNING

Running out of fuel may endanger the vehicle occupants. Stop and obtain additional fuel as soon as possible after the warning light illuminates or when the gauge needle approaches the "E (Empty)" mark.

CAUTION

Avoid driving with a very low fuel level. Running out of fuel may cause engine misfires and damage the catalytic converter.
