This light can come on for the following reasons:
D Low Oil Pressure
D High Coolant Temperature
D High or Low Battery Voltage
D Low Fuel Level
Fuel Gage
Your fuel gage tells you
about how much fuel you
have left when the ignition
is on.
When the needle approaches the red zone, RESERVE
FUEL will appear on the Driver Information Center
(DIC) display. When the needle approaches the
“E,” LOW FUEL will appear on the display. At this
time, you still have a little fuel left, but you should get
more soon.
Press RESET to acknowledge a DIC message(s).
Pressing RESET will also turn off a DIC message but
the LOW FUEL message will come on again in 10
minutes if you have not added fuel to the vehicle.
Here are four things that some owners ask about. All
these things are normal and do not indicate that anything
is wrong with the fuel gage.
D At the gas station, the gas pump shuts off before the
gage reads FULL (F).
D It takes more (or less) fuel to fill up than the gage
reads. For example, the gage reads half full, but it
took more (or less) than half of the tank’s capacity to
fill it.
D The gage pointer may move while cornering, braking
or speeding up.
D The gage may not indicate EMPTY (E) when the
ignition is turned off.
