I based my initial response on the fact that the Owners Manual for Honda
products, in the past did state how much (approx.) was left in the tank when
the low fuel light became lit.

See my above response, please. I apologize for my initial response, it was
based as I stated above in Manuals of previous Hondas that I have owned. It
used to be approximately nine litres (if my memory serves me well). More
than enough to get to a gas station sixty miles away or more.

At least four, and at least two when the indicator shows
empty.

So what? With the tank capacity from the manual, and the amount required
to fill the tank once the light comes on, he knows everything that's
necessary to answer his question.

To judge from all the "how do I reset my maintenance require indicator"
questions, it's actually meant to replace the manufacturer's written
instructions.

It's amazing how many people come here first, before cracking the book
or using common sense--and then believe everything they read here.
