Fuel/Water Separator: Description and Operation

Water should be drained from the engine-mounted fuel/water separator whenever the warning light comes on or every 8,000 km (5,000 miles). More
frequent drain intervals may be required depending on fuel quality and vehicle usage.

NOTE:  Dispose of drainage waste properly in accordance with all federal, state, and local requirements.

The instrument panel warning lamp (WATER IN FUEL) will glow when approximately 0.1 liter (0.1 quart) of water has accumulated in the sedimenter.
When the warning lamp glows, shut off the engine as soon as safely possible.
