Fuel gauge
Fuel gauge
1) Trip knob
The fuel gauge is displayed when the
ignition is in the
“
ON
”
position, and it
shows the approximate amount of fuel
remaining in the tank.
The gauge indication may change 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
“
OFF
”
or
“
ACC
”
position,
the fuel gauge will light up and indicate the
amount of fuel remaining in the tank. If,
while the fuel gauge is indicating the
amount of fuel remaining in the tank, you
(a) do not press the trip knob for 10
seconds or (b) open and close the driver
’
s
door, the fuel gauge indication will turn off.
NOTE
You will see the
“ ”
sign in the fuel
gauge. This indicates that the fuel filler
door (lid) is located on the right side of
the vehicle.
&
ECO gauge (if equipped)
1) U.S.-spec. models
2) Except U.S.-spec. models
The ECO gauge shows the difference
between the current rate of fuel consump-
tion and the average rate of fuel consump-
tion since the trip meter was last reset.
If the needle of the gauge moves towards
the right side, this indicates better fuel
efficiency.
NOTE
.
The ECO gauge shows only an
approximate indication of fuel effi-
ciency.
.
After resetting the trip meter, the
average rate of fuel consumption is not
shown until driving 0.6 mile (1 km).
