Fuel Gauge

Note: The fuel gauge may vary slightly when your vehicle is moving or on a slope. Switch the ignition on. The fuel gauge will indicate approximately how much fuel is left in the fuel tank. The arrow adjacent to the fuel pump symbol indicates on which side of your vehicle the fuel filler door is located.

The gauge is divided into four segments and moves towards the right when you refuel your vehicle. If the gauge remains in the far left segment after adding fuel, this indicates your vehicle needs service soon. After refuelling, some variability in gauge position is normal:

• It may take a short time for the gauge to reach full after leaving the gas station. This is normal and depends upon the slope of the pavement at the gas station.
• The fuel amount dispensed into the tank is a little less or more than the gauge indicated. This is normal and depends upon the slope of pavement at the gas station.
• If the gas station nozzle shuts off before the tank is full, try a different gas pump nozzle.

Low Fuel Reminder

• A low fuel reminder triggers when the distance to empty value reaches 50 mi (80 km) to empty, with additional warnings at 25 mi (40 km), 10 mi (20 km) and 0 mi (0 km) to empty if the message is cleared each time.
• In Track Mode, the distance to empty warnings appears at 10% and 0% to empty if the message is cleared each time.
• After extended periods of performance driving, your distance to empty value may display low even after refuelling. Drive your vehicle under normal operating conditions to recalibrate the distance to empty or reset your trip computer.

Variations

Note: The low fuel warning and distance-to-empty warning can appear at different fuel gauge positions depending on fuel economy conditions. This variation is normal.

Driving Type (Fuel Economy Conditions)	Distance to Empty	Fuel Gauge Position
Highway driving.	50 mi (80 km)	1/8 tank.
Performance driving or extended idle.	50 mi (80 km)	1/4 tank.

Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge

• WARNING: Do not remove the coolant reservoir cap when the engine is on or the cooling system is hot. Wait 10 minutes for the cooling system to cool down.
• Cover the coolant reservoir cap with a thick cloth to prevent the possibility of scalding and slowly remove the cap. Failure to follow this instruction could result in personal injury.
• At normal operating temperature, the engine coolant temperature will be in the middle range of the gauge. If the engine coolant temperature exceeds the normal range, the gauge will be highlighted.
• Stop your vehicle as soon as safely possible, switch off the engine and let it cool.

Engine Oil Temperature Gauge

• If the engine oil temperature exceeds the normal range, the engine is overheating.
• Reduce engine speed as soon as safely possible to allow the engine to cool.
• If you continue to operate the engine at high engine speeds, the engine speed reduces automatically to prevent engine damage.

Engine Oil Pressure Gauge

• Oil pressure varies with engine speed. The pressure rises as the engine speed rises and drops as the engine speed drops.
• If the pressure drops below the normal range of the gauge, a warning lamp illuminates and a message appears in the information display.
• Stop your vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so and switch the engine off. Check the engine oil level.

Gauge Mode

• On the right side of the instrument cluster, you can configure which gauges are displayed.
