INSTRUMENT PANEL LEFT HAND SCREEN
Fuel Level Display
An indication of the level of fuel in the tank is displayed, with
ignition on, in the form of a vertical bar graph in the instrument
panel left hand screen. The solid bar within the outline, repre-
sents the proportion of fuel remaining in the tank.
When only 5 litres (1.3 US gall) remains, an amber tell tale
in the instrument panel will light (see page 58). Refuel at the
next opportunity.
The total usable fuel capacity is 60 litres (16 US gall), but
for re-fuelling purposes, from the time the low fuel tell tale is
triggered, approximately 50 litres (13 US gall) can be accom-
modated. Note that from the point of low fuel tell tale activa-
tion to the gauge reading empty, is around 5 litres (1.3 US gall)..
The remaining balance of 5 litres should be treated only as an
emergency contingent, the use of which may entail intermittent
fuel starvation and potential engine damage. In such a situa-
tion, driving style should be modified to minimise engine load
and cornering forces.
If maximum engine or handling performance is to be exploited,
or severe gradients tackled, a high fuel level should be main-
tained to ensure the greatest safety margin of fuel supply.
NOTICE
Do not allow the tank to run completely dry, as this
could damage the catalytic converters and fuel pump. Any
such consequence would not be covered by the New Vehicle
Warranty.
