Panel  

The

 

instrument

 

panel

 

provides

 

you

 

with

 

operating

 

conditions

 

of

 

your

 

vehicle.

 

To

 

the

is

 

the

 

fuel

 

gauge

 

which

 

indicates

 

the

 

fuel

 

level

 

in

 

the

 

fuel

 

tank.

 

When

 

the

 

needle

 

reaches

 

the

 

red

 

zone

 

on

 

the

 

gauge,

 

you

 

are

 

running

 

low

 

on

 

fuel

 

and

 

the

 

tank

 

should

 

be

 

refilled.

 

This

 

gauge

 

is

 

controlled

 

by

 

a

 

fuel

 

level

 

sending

 

unit

 

located

 

inside

 

the

 

fuel

 

tank.

  

 

The

 

center

 

speedometer

 

indicates

 

the

 

current

 

speed

 

of

 

your

 

vehicle.

 

The

 

speedometer

 

is

 

calibrated

 

in

 

both

 

MPH,

 

(Miles

 

per

 

hour)

 

and

 

KPH,

 

(Kilometers

 

per

 

hour).

 

This

 

gauge

 

is

 

controlled

cable

 

attached

 

to

 

the

 

front

 

wheel

 

of

 

the

 

vehicle.

  

 

The

series

 

of

 

three

 

indicator

 

lamps.

When

 

illuminated

 

your

 

oil

 

tank

 

is

 

low

 

and

 

needs

 

to

 

be

 

refilled.

 

Continued

 

operations

 

of

 

the

 

engine

 

with

 

a

 

low

 

oil

 

condition

 

will

 

cause

 

severe

 

damage

 

to

 

the

 

engine

 

and

 

potentially

 

unsafe

 

operating

 

condition.

 

Refill

 

your

tank

 

with

 

High

 

grade

 

JASO

 

FC
