Fuel Gauges
A maximum of two fuel gauges, an upper gauge and a lower gauge, appear above and below the speedometer
in the center of the Fuel Gauges page. You must have fuel level sensors in your fuel tanks or a fuel ow sensor
to capture the data shown in the fuel gauges.
If you use only a fuel ow sensor, the amount of fuel onboard is the estimated fuel level, and it is based on the
total tank size, the recorded amount of fuel in the tanks, and the fuel ow rate.
The number and conguration of fuel gauges that appear is based on the number and type of onboard fuel data
sensors, as shown below.
