Fuel Gauge; Speedometer; Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge - Ford 1998 Expedition Owner's Manual

Instrumentation

Fuel gauge

Displays approximately how much
fuel is in the fuel tank (when the
F
key is in the ON position). The fuel
gauge may vary slightly when the
vehicle is in motion. The ignition
should be in the OFF position while
the vehicle is being refueled. When
E
the gauge first indicates empty,
there is a small amount of reserve
FUEL DOOR
fuel in the tank. When refueling the
vehicle from empty indication, the
amount of fuel that can be added will be less than the advertised
capacity due to the reserve fuel.
A minimum of six gallons must be added or removed from the fuel tank
in order for the gauge to instantaneously update. If less than six gallons
is the change, the gauge will take between five to ten minutes to update.

Engine coolant temperature gauge

Indicates the temperature of the
engine coolant. At normal operating
temperature, the needle remains
within the normal area (the area
H
between the "H" and "C"). If it
enters the red section, the engine is
overheating. Stop the vehicle as
soon as safely possible, switch off
C
the engine immediately and let the
engine cool. Refer to Engine
coolant in the Maintenance and
care chapter.
