1. Speedometer
Indicates road speed in miles per hour and/or kilometres per hour.
2. Total distance recorder (odometer)
Indicates the total distance travelled by the car.
3. Fuel gauge
The pointer indicates the quantity of fuel in the tank once the starter
switch is turned on.
4. Coolant temperature gauge
The gauge indicates the temperature of the engine coolant. As the
engine warms up, the pointer will rise from the BLUE (’C’ - cold)
mark to the mid-point of the gauge, where it should remain while
the engine is operating at its normal temperature.
If the pointer reaches the RED (’H’ - hot) mark, the coolant is too
hot and severe engine damage could result; stop the car as soon as
safety permits and seek qualified assistance.
5. Tachometer
Indicates engine speed in revolutions per minute (x 1000). To
protect the engine from damage, NEVER allow the engine speed to
exceed 6,000 revolutions per minute.
Operating Tip ..........
Driving on twisting or hilly
roads may adversely affect the
accuracy of the fuel gauge. It is
advisable to check the fuel level
when the car is travelling on a
straight level road.
WARNING!
Never allow the car to run
out of fuel (the resultant
misfire could damage the
catalytic converter).
