Gauges
Fuel Gauge
This shows how much fuel you have.
It may show slightly more or less
than the actual amount. The needle
returns to the bottom after you turn
off the ignition.
Avoid driving with an extremely low
f uel level. Running out of f uel could
cause the engine to misf ire, damaging
the catalytic converter.

Check Fuel Cap Indicator
(odometer/outside temperature
message)
If your fuel cap is loose or missing, a
''CHECK FUEL CAP'' message will
appear in the odometer/outside
temperature display. As soon as it is
safely possible, turn the engine off
and check that the fuel cap is
installed. If it is, loosen the cap and
tighten it 1 click. Although you can
use the Select/Reset button to cycle
the fuel cap warning off of the
display, it will be displayed again
each time the engine is started. It
will take several days of normal
driving for the vehicle to turn the
warning off.
If the vehicle on board diagnostic
system continues to detect a
problem, the Malfunction Indicator
Lamp (MIL) will illuminate. If the
MIL does not go off, have your
dealer inspect the vehicle. For more
information, see page 251
Maintenance Minder Display
The information display in the
instrument panel shows you the
engine oil life and maintenance
service items when the ignition
switch is in the ON (II) position. This
information helps to keep you aware
of the periodic maintenance your
vehicle needs for continued trouble-
free driving. Refer to page
more information.
