Figure 2. Type B
OMQ4A035110

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

TIP

  • More information about the fuel tank can be found in Recommended lubricants and capacities.

  • The fuel gauge has a low fuel warning light that appears when the fuel tank is nearly empty.

  • On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge pointer may fluctuate and 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 put the vehicle occupants in danger.

You must stop and obtain additional fuel as soon as possible if the warning light illuminates or when the gauge indicator comes close to the “E” (Empty) level.

NOTE

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