mage to the engine.
NOTE
To protect the engine while the select
lever is in the "P" or "N" position, the
engine is controlled so that the engine
speed may not become too high even if
the accelerator pedal is depressed
hard.
& Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge shows the approximate
amount of fuel remaining in the tank.
The gauge may move slightly during
braking, turning or acceleration due to fuel
level movement in the tank.
If you press the trip knob while the ignition
switch is in the "LOCK" or "Acc" position,
the fuel gauge will light up and indicate the
amount of fuel remaining in the tank.
NOTE
You will see the " " sign in the fuel
gauge meter.
This indicates that the fuel filler door
(lid) is located on the right side of the
vehicle.
! Low fuel warning light
CAUTION
Promptly put fuel in the tank when-
ever the low fuel warning light
illuminates. Engine misfires as a
result of an empty tank could cause
damage to the engine.
The low fuel warning light illuminates
when the tank is nearly empty (approxi-
mately 2.6 US gal [10 liters, 2.2 Imp gal]).
It only operates when the ignition switch is
in the "ON" position. When this light
illuminates, fill the fuel tank immediately.
NOTE
This light does not turn off unless the
tank is replenished up to an internal
fuel quantity of approximately 4.0 US
gal (15 liters, 3.3 Imp gal).
