Fuel Gauge 

It is used to indicate the approximate 

amount of fuel remaining in the fuel 

tank. 

The displayed value will be more 

accurate when the car is driven on a 

smooth road. The indicated actual 

amount of fuel remaining will deviate 

slightly when the car is driven round 

bends or on rough roads. 

Pressing down the start button and 

putting the power at the gear ON; the 

corresponding liquid crystal band in 

the instrument will illuminate to 

indicate the present approximate fuel 

amount remaining in the fuel tank. 

After the power is turned to gear OFF, 

the fuel indication band will switch off. 

In the following cases, fuel in the fuel 

tank may move around and the 

indicated fuel amount on the fuel 

gauge may vary and the indicator light 

for low fuel may come on earlier. 

1) 

Emergency braking, 

accelerating or turning; 

2) 

When driving on a slope or 

bend. 

If the remaining fuel is consumed to a 

certain amount, the first point on the 

scale of the fuel indicator will flash, 

and the indicator light for low fuel will 

come on as well. Meanwhile, the right 

liquid crystal display shows "Please 

add fuel" to remind the user to refill 

with fuel as soon as possible. 

 

        WARNING 

  Avoid driving with a low fuel 

level. When all fuel is used up, 

the engine will stall and the 

catalytic converter will be 

damaged.
