4. Operation of systems and equipment
Tachometer
The tachometer is used to indicate the current
engine speed, in 1,000 r/min.
CAUTION
The area of 6000~8000 r/min represents
the high load area of the vehicle. Avoid
running the vehicle with the pointer of the
tachometer within this area; otherwise, fuel
shut-off and loss of power will occur due to
self-protection of the engine.
Speedometer
The speedometer indicates the current speed
of the vehicle in km/h, in the range of 0~240
km/h.
WARNING
For driving safety, please strictly abide
by the traffic rules, and never speed the
vehicle.
Engine coolant temperature gauge
The engine coolant temperature gauge is
used to indicate the current temperature of the
engine coolant.
-
The indication range covers C~H, where,
“C” means low temperature and “H”
means high temperature.
After the engine is started, the corresponding
scale divisions of the coolant temperature
gauge will be illuminated according to different
temperatures, and the engine operating
temperature will vary depending on the
ambient temperature and engine load.
-
Conditions where the gauge indicates
high coolant temperature: prolonged
climbing in hot weather; deceleration
or stop after driving at a high speed; in
areas with heavy traffic, where the HVAC
system is turned on and the engine idles
for a long time; towing, etc.
-
Conditions where the gauge indicates low
coolant temperature: insufficient warm-
up after cold start in cold weather; running
with maximum heating in cold weather,
etc.
Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge is used to indicate the current
amount of fuel remaining in the fuel tank.
-
The indication range is E~F, where
“E” means the fuel tank is empty, and
“F” means the fuel tank is full. The
corresponding scale divisions are
illuminated according to the remaining fuel
in the fuel tank.
-
When no scale division is illuminated or
only the first scale division is illuminated,
it means that the fuel in the fuel tank
is insufficient. In that case, the yellow
indicator lamp on the instrument cluster
will flash, accompanied by the alarm
message “Low fuel level”, reminding the
driver that there is not enough fuel and
fuel should be added as soon as possible.
