Low Fuel Warning

Symbol: Fuel pump

Low — no rush

What it means

The fuel tank is nearly empty. Most cars still have 30–50 miles of range when this comes on, but the exact reserve varies by model.

What to do

Fill up soon. Running the tank very low can starve the fuel pump, which uses gasoline to stay cool.
