to increase.

WARNING

Always refuel the vehicle as soon as possible after the warning light comes on or when

the gauge indicator comes close to the E (Empty) level.

120 Instrument Cluster

NOTICE

• Avoid driving with an extremely low fuel level. Running out of fuel may cause the

engine to misfire and cause damage to the catalytic converter (if equipped).

• If the gearshift is not in P (Park) or N (Neutral) when refueling, fueling may not be

recognized, and the fuel amount and the distance to empty may appear abnormally.

remaining fuel.

If the estimated distance is below 1 mile (1 km), the trip computer displays '---' as the

distance to empty. If this occurs, refuel the vehicle immediately.

• The distance to empty may differ from the actual driving distance because it is only an

estimate of the available driving distance.

• The distance to empty may differ significantly based on driving conditions, driving

habits, and condition of the vehicle.

• If the vehicle is not on level ground or the battery power has been interrupted, the

distance to empty function may not operate correctly until the vehicle has been driven

enough for the system to recalculate.

• The distance to empty indicator may not change accurately if less than 1.5 US gal. (6

liters) of fuel are added to the vehicle.
