The fuel gauge only works when the ignition is on. Pointer error (6 in illustration 13.1) is minimal when the vehicle is in a strictly horizontal position, and increases when the vehicle is driven on winding or hilly roads. The entry of the pointer arrow into the red area at the beginning of the scale means the use of a reserve fuel supply (approximately 10.5 l) and is accompanied by the inclusion of a yellow control lamp in the form of a fuel filling station on the right above the scale. On some models, an additional sound signal sounds, and an additional message is displayed on the instrument cluster display "Refuel! Power reserve... km". In this case, refueling should be carried out as soon as possible, because. Operating the vehicle with low fuel can result in engine misfiring when driving uphill or downhill, and damage to the catalytic converter due to misfiring. When there is a reserve supply of fuel, the additional heater is automatically switched off. If the engine is running erratically due to a low fuel reserve, the power steering, as well as all auxiliary systems for the driver and the vehicle dynamics control systems, may be switched off.
