fuel tank capacity CHEVROLET UPLANDER 2007 1.G Owners Manual

Fuel Gage
When the indicator nears empty, you still have a
little fuel left, but you should get more soon.
Your fuel gage tells you about how much fuel you
have left when the ignition is on.Here are four things some owners ask about. All
these things are normal and do not indicate
that anything is wrong with the fuel gage.
At the gas station, the gas pump shuts off
before the gage reads full.
It takes a little more (or less) fuel to ll 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 ll it.
The gage pointer may move while cornering,
braking or speeding up.
The gage may not indicate empty when the
ignition is turned off.
Low Fuel Warning Light
The light next to the fuel gage will come on briey
when you are starting the engine.
This light comes on when the fuel tank is low on
fuel. To turn it off, add fuel to the fuel tank.

Fuel Range
Press the information button until FUEL RANGE
displays. This mode shows the approximate
number of remaining miles or kilometers the
vehicle can be driven without refueling.
Fuel range is based on several factors, including
distance travelled, fuel used, fuel capacity,
etc. This estimate will change if driving conditions
change. For example, if driving in traffic and
making frequent stops, this mode may read one
number, but if the vehicle is driven on a freeway,
the number may change even though the
same amount of fuel is in the fuel tank. This is
because different driving conditions produce
different fuel economies. Generally, freeway
driving produces better fuel economy than city
driving. Fuel range cannot be reset.
If your vehicle is low on fuel, FUEL RANGE LOW
will display followed by the LOW FUEL message.
See “LOW FUEL” underDIC Warnings and
Messages on page 256for more information.
Average Fuel Economy
Press the information button until AVG ECONOMY
displays. This mode shows the approximate
average miles per gallon (mpg) or liters per
100 kilometers (L/100 km). This number is
calculated based on the number of mpg (L/100 km)
recorded since the last time this menu item was
reset. To reset AVG ECONOMY, press and
hold the set/reset button. The display will return
to zero.
Battery
Press the information button until BATTERY
displays. This mode shows the current battery
voltage.
Your vehicle’s charging system regulates voltage
based on the state of the battery. The battery
voltage may uctuate when viewing this
information on the DIC. This is normal.
If there is a problem with the battery charging
system, a DIC message will display. See
DIC Warnings and Messages on page 256for
more information.
