When Driving

Instrument Cluster and Display

 Fuel Gauge

The fuel gauge shows approximately 

how much fuel is remaining in the tank 

when the ignition is switched ON. We 

recommend keeping the tank over 1/4 full.

Full

1/4 Full

Empty

If the low fuel warning light illuminates or 

the fuel level is very low, refuel as soon as 

possible.

Refer to Warning/Indicator Lights on page 

4-16.

NOTE



  After refueling, it may require some 

time for the indicator to stabilize. In 

addition, the indicator may deviate 

while driving on a slope or curve since 

the fuel moves in the tank.



  The display indicating a quarter or less 

remaining fuel has more segments to 

show the remaining fuel level in greater 

detail.



  The direction of the arrow ( ) indicates 

that the fuel-filler lid is on the left side 

of the vehicle.
