(page 7-18).

qFuel Gauge

The fuel gauge shows approximately how

much fuel is in the tank. We recommend

keeping the tank over 1/4 full. When the

low fuel warning light illuminates or

when the needle is near E, refuel as soon

as possible.

NOTE

The direction of the arrow ( ) shown that

the fuel-filler lid is on the left side of the

vehicle.

qEngine Oil Pressure Gauge

Normal range

Engine oil pressure is normal when the

engine oil pressure gauge needle points

within the normal range.

If the needle on the gauge doesn't move

after starting the engine, follow steps 1

through 3.

If the engine oil pressure gauge moves to

L (low) while you are driving, drive to the

side of the road and park off the right-of-

way. Set the parking brake. Then follow

steps 1 through 3.

1. Turn off the engine and inspect the

engine oil level (page 8-22). If it's low,

add oil.

2. Start the engine.

3. If the needle still doesn't move, have

your vehicle checked at an Authorized

Mazda Dealer.

CAUTION

Don't run the engine if the oil

pressure is low. It could result in

extensive engine damage.
