2004 jeep liberty "low fuel warning" indicator
 

How many gallons of gas are there left in the tank when the "low fuel
warning" light goes on? (The fuel-tank capacity is 19.5 gallons).

Re: 2004 jeep liberty "low fuel warning" indicator
 

It should tell you in your owner's manual. Probabaly only about 2.5 - why
risk it?
Try running on the TOP half of the tank instead of the bottom half.

When I first started driving (oh sooo many years ago), I was told to
do this (keep the tank full) to keep RUST from forming in the tank.
I've never really practiced this faithfully, and I've never had any
problems (AFAIK).

I let the ZJ get too low once coming home from a long road trip.
Any slowing down would stall the engine. i.e. someone cutting in
front of me.

From that point on I keep at least 1/2 tank.

Yeah, got too busy ONCE and let the "pedestrian light" [1] come on.
Almost made it to the one 76 station on that side of the freeway. From
the time the light flickered until it ran out was less than 3 miles.

Pulled into a gas station late one 1967 evening after hitting the
local rock club. Asked the pump jock to pump one gallon.
Paid with a quarter and got 6 cents change. Ahhh when I was 18.

Yeah, not sure what is wrong with mine, as I figured I could easily make
it to the gas stations only about 11 miles away. Stupid move really,
just kept forgetting to fill the thing since I do normally run only off
the top half. Luckily it was a short walk and the station was willing
to loan a can.

In 110K miles on my 96 Cherokee I've only seen that light come on one
time and it scared me to death. The dealer told me when I purchased it
that the warning light and gauge on the jeeps are very un-faithful, so I
don't intentionally let it get low. RM~

The "official" answer from www.Jeep.com:

"Your vehicle is equipped with a 19.5 gallon fuel tank. The low fuel
warning light will come on when the tank is at 12.5% of it's capacity,
which is 2.4375 gallons of fuel".

Which is by Murpeys Law, at least one more gallon away from the closest gas station. :)
