Default Low Gas Light on H3?

Hey Everyone! I have had my H3 for a few weeks and have not seen a gas light come on when I get low? Do they even have one? When I fill up at the first red line.....it takes 19 gal. I know it has a 23 gal. tank......just want to know how far I can get.

hey there...Nice salmon!


I think you have to get down to about a 1 and 1/2 gallons remaining before the low fuel indicator comes on...

You guys are braver than me to go looking for that low fuel light. I refill at a half tank, and definately no lower than a quarter tank remaining.

It will also start making a dinging noise through the stereo. I let mine run down many times. Most of the time, it will come on after you get down to 3 gallons or less. I let it run down almost every time until the light comes on, and my experience has been if you fill up right after that happens, you still have about 3 gallons left, but don't blame me if I'm off. I would stick to Dennis's 1 1/2 to be safe ;-)

Actually, it's not a light. A message comes up on the Odometer display that says "Low Fuel" so it pretty much smacks you in the face along with the doorbell sound. When that light comes on, you should have at least 30 miles to drive before you need to start panicing ;-)

You let it run down to the point where you died out?
