Fuel Gage
United StatesCanada
The fuel gage, when the ignition is on, shows how much
fuel the vehicle has left in the fuel tank.
An arrow on the fuel gage indicates the side of the
vehicle the fuel door is on. The gage first indicates empty before the vehicle is out
of fuel. The vehicle's fuel tank should be filled soon.
When the fuel tank is low, the FUEL LEVEL LOW
message will appear. See
DIC Warnings and Messages
on page 4‑56.
Here are some situations customers experience with
the fuel gage. None of these indicate a problem with the
fuel gage.
.At the gas station, the fuel pump shuts off before
the gage reads full.
.It takes a little more or less fuel to fill up than the
fuel gage indicated. For example, the gage may
have indicated the fuel tank was half full, but it
actually took a little more or less than half the fuel
tank's capacity to fill it.
.The gage goes back to empty when the ignition is
turned off.
