Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge Shows the temperature of the engine coolant. At normal operating temperature, the needle will remain in the center section. If the needle enters the red section, the engine is overheating. Stop the engine, switch the ignition off and determine the cause once the engine has cooled down. Note: Do not restart the engine until the cause of the overheating has been resolved.


WARNING


Never remove the coolant reservoir cap while the engine is running or hot.


Fuel Gauge Note: The fuel gauge may vary slightly when your vehicle is moving or on a gradient. Switch the ignition on. The fuel gauge will indicate approximately how much fuel is left in the fuel tank. The arrow adjacent to the fuel pump symbol indicates on which side of your vehicle the fuel filler door is located. The needle should move toward F when you refuel your vehicle. If the needle points to E after adding fuel, this indicates your vehicle needs service soon. After refueling some variability in needle position is normal: •


It may take a short time for the needle to reach full after leaving the gas station. This is normal and depends upon the slope of pavement at the gas station. The fuel amount dispensed into the tank is a little less or more than the gauge indicated. This is normal and depends upon the slope of pavement at the gas station.





If the gas station nozzle shuts off before the tank is full, try a different gas pump nozzle. There is a small reserve left in the tank when the fuel gauge reaches empty.


Low Fuel Reminder A low fuel reminder triggers when the distance to empty reaches 75 miles (120
km), 50 miles (80 km), 25 miles (40 km), 10 miles (20 km) and 0 miles (0 km) . Variations: Note: The low fuel warning and distance-to-empty warning can appear at different fuel gauge positions depending on fuel economy conditions. This variation is normal. WARNING LAMPS AND INDICATORS The following warning lamps and indicators alert you to a vehicle condition that may become serious. Some lamps illuminate when you start your vehicle to make sure they work. If any lamps remain on after starting your vehicle, refer to the respective system warning lamp for further information. Note: Some warning indicators appear in the information display and function the same as a warning lamp, but do not display when you start your vehicle. Adaptive Cruise Control (If Equipped)

loads as soon as possible to improve the system voltage.


Once the system voltage recovers, the disabled features will


operate as normal.


The battery management system determines that the battery is at a low state of charge. Switch the ignition off as soon as possible to protect the battery. This message clears once you start the vehicle and the battery state of charge has recovered. Turning off unnecessary electrical loads allows faster battery


state-of-charge recovery.
