Fuel Gage
United States Canada
The fuel gage tells you about how much fuel you have
left when the ignition is on. When the indicator nears
empty, you still have a little fuel left, but you should
get more soon.
Here are four things owners usually ask about the fuel
gage. All these situations are normal and do not indicate
a problem with the fuel gage:
At the gas station, the pump shuts off before the
gage reads full.
It takes more (or less) fuel to fill up than the gage
indicates. For example, the gage reads half full,
but it took more (or less) than half the tank’s
capacity to fill it.
The gage pointer may move while cornering, braking
or speeding up.
The gage may not indicate full when the ignition is
turned off.
Low Fuel Light
If your fuel is low, the
warning light near the
fuel gage will go on.
It will also come on for a few seconds when you first
turn on the ignition as a check to show you it’s working
properly. If it doesn’t come on then, see your dealer
for service.
