procedure? Refer to

Do you have fuel? Turn the
ignition switch to ON (II) for a
minute and watch the fuel gauge.
The low fuel level warning light
may not be working, so you were
not reminded to fill the tank.

problem, such as no power to the
fuel pump. Check all the fuses

If the headlights dim noticeably or
go out when you try to start the

corroded. Check the condition of the
battery and terminal connections
(see page ). You can then try
jump starting the car from a booster
battery (see page ).
