below approximately 1/4 filled. The light will remain on

trip odometer display. Holding the button in resets the

22. Fuel Gauge
Shows level of fuel in tank when ignition switch is in the
ON position.
23. Low Fuel Warning Light
Illuminates when the pointer is between “E” and
1/8 indication mark (approximately 15% of tank
volume) on the fuel gauge. When the fuel gauge
pointer is on “E” (equivalent to Distance To Empty [DTE]
= 0 on the overhead console if so equipped) there is
reserve fuel capacity, which corresponds to approxi-
mately 8% of tank volume. This reserve capacity was put
in place to prevent the likelihood of customers running
out of fuel when operating at maximum load conditions
in areas where there aren’t many gas stations.
Ram SRT-10 fuel tank volume is as follows:
•
26 gallons (98L)
24. Oil Temperature Gauge – if equipped
This gauge shows the oil temperature. The gauge pointer
will likely show higher temperatures when driving in hot
weather, up mountain grades, or in heavy stop and go
traffic. If this gauge reaches the red zone you should stop
the vehicle, shift into Neutral, and increase the engine
idle speed for 2 to 3 minutes. If the temperature reading
does not return to normal, shut OFF your engine and
allow it to cool.
NOTE: The oil temperature gauge will not illuminate
the CHECK GAGES Light.
