Low Fuel Warning Light - Chevrolet 2009 Equinox Owner's Manual

When the indicator nears empty, the low fuel light
will come on. You still have a little fuel left, but you
should get more soon. See Low Fuel Warning Light
on page 3-41 for more information.
Here are four things that some owners ask about.
None of these show a problem with your fuel gage:
•
At the service station, the fuel pump shuts off before
the gage reads full.
•
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 it actually took
a little more or less than half the tank's capacity
to fill the tank.
•
The gage moves a little when you turn a corner or
speed up.
•
The gage takes a few seconds to stabilize after the
ignition is turned on, and will go back to empty
when you turn the ignition off.
For your fuel tank capacity, see Capacities and
Specifications on page 5-103.

Low Fuel Warning Light

This light comes on when the fuel tank is low on fuel.
When you add fuel the light should go off. If it does not,
have your vehicle serviced.
A "Fuel Level LOW" message also appears in the Driver
Information Center (DIC). See Fuel Gage on page 3-40
for more information.
This light is located in
the fuel gage. For more
information see Fuel Gage
