Fuel Gage - Pontiac 2004 Montana Owner's Manual

Fuel Gage

United States
When the indicator nears empty, you still have a little
fuel left, but you should get more soon.
If your fuel is low, the warning message in the message
center will come on. See Low Fuel Warning Message
on page 3-56.
Your fuel gage tells you about how much fuel you have
left when the ignition is on.

At the gas station, the gas pump shuts off before
the gage reads full.
It takes a little more (or less) fuel to fill up than the
gage reads. For example, the gage read 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 speeding up.
The gage may not indicate empty when the ignition
is turned off.
