Eco Gauge - Subaru Legacy 2012 User Manual

3-8
Instruments and controls
The gauge may move slightly during
braking, turning or acceleration due to fuel
level movement in the tank.
If you press the trip knob while the ignition
switch is in the "LOCK" or "Acc" position,
the fuel gauge's dial will light up and the
needle will indicate the amount of fuel
remaining in the tank.
If, while the fuel gauge needle is indicating
the amount of fuel remaining in the tank,
you (a) do not press the trip knob for 10
seconds or (b) open and close the driver's
door, the fuel gauge needle will drop to the
"E" position and the dial and needle will
turn off.
NOTE
You will see the " " sign in the fuel
gauge.
This indicates that the fuel filler door
(lid) is located on the right side of the
vehicle.
