Fuel Gauge
Base Level Standard Theme
Uplevel Balanced Configuration
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.
Here are four things that some owners ask about. None of these show a
problem with the fuel gauge:
. At the service station, the fuel
pump shuts off before the gauge reads full.
. It takes a little more or less fuel to fill up than the gauge indicated.
For example, the gauge may have indicated the tank was half full,
but it actually took a little more or less than half the tank's capacity
to fill the tank.
. The gauge moves a little while
turning a corner or speeding up.
. The gauge takes a few seconds to stabilize after the ignition is
turned on, and goes back to empty when the ignition is turned off.
