Fuel Gage - Buick 2009 Enclave Owner's Manual

Fuel Gage

An arrow on the fuel gage indicates the side of the
vehicle the fuel door is on.
When the indicator nears empty, there is still a little fuel
left, but you should get more fuel soon.

The fuel gage indicates
about how much fuel is left
in the fuel tank when the
ignition is on.
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:
•
At the gas station, the pump shuts off before the
gage reads full.
•
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.
•
The gage pointer may move while cornering,
braking or accelerating.
•
The gage may not indicate empty when the ignition
is turned off.
