Fuel warning on sat nav screen?

Hi all, I have gathered that I should get a low fuel warning either audiable or visual from the sat nav screen. I have a 07my HSE and the option is switched on.

I have had the fuel run down to about 2 litres but have not heard anything. Any clues?

When the low fuel warning light comes on the sat nav screen should show all the petrol stations within the map area. I think if you have it zoomed out too far it wont.

I have mine on 1/8th/mile

I think that's because you have one (or more) of the 'quick POI's' enabled

I have found that only works when you are 'running a route' as it will then calculate where you are and where you need to go to, given your current fuel consumption, then calculate if you have enough fuel to get to your destination, it will then show the fuel stations en-route.

So, let me get this straight then.

The 'Fuel Warning' is, in fact fuel stations being shown on the sat nav screen? No 'bong' even? Parrrgh, thought it could at least tell you all sexy like " warning, if you continue, we'll run out of fuel and be stuck out here all day/night with just each other for company" ..... mind you, that could be a non sexy man saying that - euchhhh Laughing

Ours bongs when the low fuel light comes on (the same time as the service stations appear on the nav screen)
