Buick 2009 Enclave - Manual (Page 160)

Fuel Gage
When the ignition is on, the fuel
gage shows about how much fuel
the vehicle has left in the fuel tank.
An arrow on the fuel gage indicates
the side of the vehicle the fuel door
is on.
The gage will first indicate empty
before the vehicle is out of fuel, but
the vehicle’s fuel tank should be
filled soon.
When the fuel tank is low on fuel,
the FUEL LEVEL LOW message
appears on the Driver Information
Center (DIC). For more information
see DIC Warnings and Messages
on page 3-50.
Here are some situations that can
occur with the fuel gage. None of
these indicate a problem with the
fuel gage.
• At the gas station, the fuel
pump shuts off before the gage
reads full.
• It takes a little more or less fuel to
fill up than the fuel 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 goes back to empty
when the ignition is turned off.
Driver Information
Center (DIC)
Your vehicle has a Driver
Information Center (DIC).
The DIC displays information
about your vehicle. It also displays
warning messages if a system
problem is detected.
All messages will appear in the DIC
display located at the top of the
instrument panel cluster.
The DIC comes on when the
ignition is on. After a short delay,
the DIC will display the information
that was last displayed before
the engine was turned off.
The DIC also displays a shift lever
position indicator on the bottom
line of the display. See Automatic
Transmission Operation on
page 2-24 for more information.
