The fuel gauge indicates the approx-
imate amount of fuel remaining in the
fuel tank. The fuel tank capacity is
indicated in chapter 9. The fuel
gauge is supplemented by a low fuel
warning light, which will illuminate
when the fuel tank is nearly empty.
This gauge shows the temperature
of the engine coolant when the igni-
tion switch is ON.
If the gauge pointer moves beyond
the normal range area toward the “H”
position, it indicates overheating that
may damage the engine.
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.
Do not continue driving with an over-
heated engine. If your vehicle over-
heats, refer to “If the engine over-
heats” in chapter 7.
