The fuel gauge shows the amount of fuel in the tank, from "full" to "empty" (end of red sector). When the indicator needle enters the red sector, there are still approx. 35 liters (9.2 U.S. gal.) remaining in the tank.

NOTE: Never run the tank completely dry, otherwise you will have to bleed the fuel system.
