Mazda CX-3: Meters and Gauges / Fuel Gauge

Mazda CX-3 (2015-2024) Owner's Manual / When Driving / Instrument Cluster and Display / Meters and Gauges / Fuel Gauge

The fuel gauge shows approximately how much fuel is remaining in the tank when the ignition is switched ON. We recommend keeping the tank over 1/4 full.

Mazda CX-3. Fuel Gauge

If the low fuel warning light illuminates or the fuel level is very low, refuel as soon as possible.

If inconsistency in engine performance or stalling occurs due to low fuel level conditions, refuel the vehicle as soon as possible and add at least 10 L (2.7 US gal, 2.2 Imp gal) of fuel. Refer to Taking Action.

NOTE

After refueling, it may require some time for the indicator to stabilize. In addition, the indicator may deviate while driving on a slope or curve since the fuel moves in the tank.

The display indicating a quarter or less remaining fuel has more segments to show the remaining fuel level in greater detail.

The direction of the arrow indicates that the fuel-filler lid is on the left side of the vehicle.
