Once indicator lamp 1 stays on continu-
ously, there are still approx. 2.1 gallons
(8 liters) of fuel in the fuel tank.
Tank capacity: approx. 13.2 gallons
(50 liters).
When you switch on the ignition, the indi-
cator lamp lights up briefly to confirm that
the system is operational.
If the tilt of the vehicle varies (when you
are driving in mountainous areas, for
example), the needle may fluctuate
slightly.
Please refuel early, since driving to
the last drop of fuel can result in
damage to the engine and/or catalytic
converter.<
