Subaru Forester: Fuel gauge
Type A
1) Low fuel warning light
Type B
1) Low fuel warning light
The fuel gauge shows the approximate amount of fuel remaining in the tank.
When the ignition switch is in the “LOCK” or “Acc” position, the fuel gauge is off (type A)/the fuel gauge shows “E” (type B) even if the fuel tank contains fuel.
The fuel gauge indication may change 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 will light up and indicate the amount of fuel remaining in the tank.
If, while the fuel gauge 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 indication 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.
