The engine speed can be controlled either by the foot accelerator or the
throttle knob, which is located on the instrument panel above the ignition
switch.
The light control knob is located directly to the left of the ignition lock.
Pulling the knob out to the first position gives side lights and head lights in
the second position. The head light control is located on the toe board to the
left of the clutch pedal. If the head lights are on "bright" they are "dimmed"
by pressing this foot control. A second depression of this control returns the
lights to "bright."
The service lamp is located on the instrument panel above the instrument
group. When the lamp is pulled out it automatically lights.
The starter is controlled by the ignition lock. When the ignition key is turned
to the right, the ignition is turned "on" and the starter is brought into operation.
Should the engine stop while the key is turned to the right, the automatic
starter will immediately engage and re-start the engine. If the car is in gear
when the engine stalls, the clutch pedal should be depressed until the engine
starts.
If it is not desired to use the automatic starter after the engine has been
started, the ignition key can be turned to the left. Turning the key to the left
will also permit reading the gasoline or oil gauge and timing of the ignition
without starting the engine.
If it is desired to turn the engine by the starter without starting the engine,
push the plunger which extends out of the rear face of the automatic starter
relay box (under hood at left of engine). Hold the plunger down firmly and
release quickly by sliding the finger off sidewise to prevent the plunger
sticking. Should the plunger stick so that the engine continues to turn, push it
in again and release quickly.
The carburetor choke control knob is located to the right of the ignition lock.
(See "Starting the Engine" for use of choke.)
The oil pressure signal is the red jewel located to the left of the center of the
instrument group. When the ignition switch is turned "on" this signal will be
lighted and should stop glowing when the engine is running. If it remains
lighted or flashes while the engine is running above idling speed, the engine
should be stopped and the oil level in the reservoir checked. If necessary,
check the oil lines. Do not run the engine until the trouble is corrected.
The generator signal is the red jewel located to the right of the center of the
instrument group. When the ignition switch is turned "on" this signal will be
lighted and should stop glowing when the engine reaches a speed slightly
