What does the fuel gauge EF mean?
1 Answers
The fuel gauge EF represents the abbreviations for the remaining fuel level in the tank. E stands for the English word 'empty,' meaning the tank is empty, while F stands for 'full,' indicating the tank is full. When the needle points to F, it means the tank is full. When the needle approaches E, it indicates the fuel is nearly depleted. From the moment the warning light turns on until the fuel is completely exhausted, the vehicle can still travel approximately 50 kilometers. During vehicle use, it is advisable not to wait until the warning light comes on to refuel. This is because the fuel pump is installed inside the fuel tank and relies on the fuel for cooling. Insufficient fuel levels can hinder the proper operation of the fuel pump. If the fuel level in the tank is too low, it may shorten the lifespan of the fuel tank.
