The fuel gage shows how much fuel the vehicle has left, when the ignition is
on. When the indicator nears empty, a LOW FUEL message appears on the Driver Information
Center (DIC). See
DIC Warnings and Messages
for more information. The vehicle still has a little fuel left, but the vehicle should
be fueled soon. The arrow on the fuel gage points to side of the vehicle with the
fuel door.
Here are four things that some owners ask about. These are normal and do not
indicate a problem with the fuel gage:
• | At the service station, the gas pump shuts off before the gage reads full. |
• | It takes a little more or less fuel to fill up than the gage indicated.
For example, the gage may have indicated the tank was half full, but it actually took
a little more or less than half the tank's capacity to fill the tank. |
• | The indicator moves a little when while turning a corner or speeding up. |
• | The gage goes back to empty when the ignition is turned off. |
