Driver information -> Fuel gauge for Your Volkswagen Jetta 4 Door Seventh Generation (2019-2025)

Destination information  
When route guidance is activated, the Destination information secondary display shows the predicted journey time and  
distance from the destination.  
Some displays in the Volkswagen Digital Cockpit may be hidden due to events that occur suddenly, e.g. incoming phone  
calls.  
Depending on the equipment, some settings and displays may also appear in the Infotainment system.  
Tachometer  
The start of the red area on the tachometer indicates the maximum permissible engine speed for all gears when the engine is  
run in and at operating temperature.  
Before reaching the red area, shift to the next highest gear, select the selector lever position D/S or take your foot off the  
accelerator pedal.  
NOTICE  
To prevent engine damage, the tachometer indicator may only be in the red area of the scale briefly. A heavy engine load,  
especially when the engine is cold, can lead to engine damage.  
Avoid high engine speeds, harsh acceleration and heavy engine loads when the engine is cold.  
Shifting up early helps save fuel and reduce operating noises.

Troubleshooting  
Fuel tank almost empty  
The yellow indicator light turns on. The reserve supply (red marking ) is being used.  
1. Refuel at the next opportunity.  
Fuel tank cap open  
The yellow indicator light turns on.  
1. Close the fuel tank cap.  
WARNING  
If the fuel level is too low, this can result in irregular fuel supply and cause the engine to “sputter” or cut out, particularly  
when traveling uphill or downhill. The steering, all driver assistance systems and brake support systems will not work if  
the engine cuts out due to fuel shortage or irregular fuel supply. This may result in vehicle breakdowns while driving,  
accidents and serious or fatal injuries.  
Check that the fuel tank is always sufficiently filled.  
Always refill the fuel when the fuel tank is only 1/4 full.  
NOTICE  
Irregular fuel supply can result in misfiring and unburnt fuel entering the exhaust system.  
Never drive with a completely empty fuel tank.
