What does the fuel sign mean?

Fuel sign refers to the signage at gas stations that provides directional guidance for vehicles. A gas station is a retail facility that serves automobiles and other motor vehicles by supplying gasoline and motor oil, with "safety" as its primary principle - open flames are strictly prohibited within the station. More details are as follows: 1. The fuel dispenser is the oil metering equipment that directly refuels vehicles. 2. Together with oil tanks, pipelines, pipe fittings and valves, it forms a complete fuel supply system. 3. The fuel dispenser consists of four major assemblies: oil pump, oil-gas separator, metering device, and counter, along with other components such as motors and fuel nozzles. All types of fuel dispensers can be considered as being composed of these four major assemblies and other simple components.
The fuel pump symbol, usually depicted as a small gas pump icon on the car dashboard, indicates low fuel and the need to refuel promptly. Having driven for many years, I know that when this light comes on, it means the fuel level is critically low. Its bright design serves as a crucial reminder to avoid running out of gas on the road. When this warning light illuminates, it typically means the fuel level has dropped below a certain threshold, such as a quarter tank. Ignoring it may lead to vehicle breakdown or excessive fuel consumption, potentially damaging the engine. I recommend periodically checking the dashboard while driving and heading to the nearest gas station as soon as the fuel light turns on. Don't underestimate this indicator—it can also alert you to potential issues like fuel tank blockages or fuel line problems. During routine maintenance, ask your mechanic to inspect the electrical circuits and sensors to prevent false alarms.
