Fuel Gage Your fuel gagetells you about how much fuel you have left when the ignition is on. When the indicator nears EMPTY (E), you still have a little fuel left, but you should get more soon. Low Fuel Light If your fuel islow, a circular light on your instrument panel cluster will come on and stay on and a chime will sound periodically until you add fuel. Itwill also come on for a few seconds when you first turn on the ignition as a check to show you it's working. If it doesn't come on then, have it fixed. 112 Here are somethings owners ask about.All these situations are normal and do not show a problem with your fuel gage: At the service station, the pump shuts off before the gage readsFULL (F). 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 actually took a little more it or less than half thetank's capacity to fill it. 0 The gage moves a little when you turn a corner or speed up. 2-76
