Low Fuel Warning Lamp?

I did a search and didn't find an answer.......so I'll ask!

The Low Fuel Warning indicator flashes for awhile and eventually quits. It's only the second time I've noticed it happening!
Tank is 3/4 - Full. Wondering if anyone has come across this and found a solution.
Is it something to be concerned about?

Thanks!

It is a result of a major purge system leak. In layman's terms, check your fuel cap, I bet its loose.
Expect a check engine lamp to follow.
