Narrative:
Early during takeoff roll; the pilot noted a right hand 'low fuel press' annunciator and associated master warning. The pilot rejected the takeoff as briefed for a master warning prior to V1 speed. The pilot assumed a false annunciator warning. All aircraft instruments and indications remained normal; 'low fuel press' annunciator extinguished after power was reduced. Assuming a false warning; and taking into consideration that all other remaining instruments and annunciators were indicating normal; the pilot decided to attempt a normal takeoff after taxiing back to [the] runway and receiving takeoff clearance. All operations during second takeoff were entirely normal; routine; with no abnormal annunciations or events. Flight continued through termination under normal operating circumstances.
