Figure 2. Type B
ODL3A040513

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

NOTE

  • The fuel tank capacity is given in Recommended lubricants and capacities.

  • The fuel gauge is supplemented by a low fuel warning light, which will appear 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.

WARNING

Fuel gauge

Running out of fuel can expose vehicle 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" level.

CAUTION

Avoid driving with an extremely low fuel level. Running out of fuel could cause the engine to misfire, which could damage the catalytic converter.

NOTE

The fuel display may not be accurate if the vehicle is on an incline.
