When the ignition is on, the fuel gage indicates how much fuel is left in the tank.
When the indicator nears empty, the low fuel light comes on. There is still a little fuel left, but the fuel tank should be refilled soon. See Low Fuel Warning Light for more information.
An arrow on the fuel gage indicates the side of the vehicle the fuel door is on.
Here are four things that some owners ask about. None of these means the fuel gage is not working properly:
| • | At the service station, the fuel 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 gage moves a little while turning a corner or speeding up. |
| • | The gage takes a few seconds to stabilize after the ignition is turned on, but it goes back to empty when the ignition is turned off. |

When the ignition is on, the fuel gage shows approximately how much fuel is left in the tank. The gage will first indicate E (empty) before it is out of fuel, but the vehicle should be refueled as soon as possible.
An arrow on the fuel gage indicates the side of the vehicle the fuel door is on.
Listed are four situations that may occur with the fuel gage. None of these indicate a problem:
| • | At the gas station, the fuel pump shuts off before the gage reads F (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 tank was half full, but it actually took a little more or less than half the tank's capacity to fill the tank. |
| • | The gage moves a little while turning a corner or speeding up. |
| • | The gage doesn't go back to E (empty) when the ignition is turned off. |
