Fuel Gage • 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 goes back to empty when you turn off the ignition. Low Fuel Warning Light The light next to the fuel gage will come on briefly when you are starting the engine. United States Canada This light comes on when the fuel tank is low on fuel. To turn it off, add fuel to the fuel tank. See Fuel on page 5-4. When the ignition is on, the fuel gage tells you about how much fuel you have left in your tank. The gage will first indicate empty before you are out of fuel, and you should get more fuel as soon as possible. Here are some situations you may experience with your fuel gage. None of these indicate a problem with the fuel gage. Driver Information Center (DIC) The DIC display is located on the instrument panel cluster above the steering wheel. The DIC can display information such as the trip odometer, fuel economy and personalization features. Vehicles without the DIC buttons will not have all the features as the regular DIC. See Speedometer and Odometer on page 3-33 for information on features for vehicles without a full DIC. • At the gas station, the fuel pump shuts off before the gage reads full. 3-46
