Main beam warning light
The main beam warning light in the instru-
ment console lights when the headlamps
are on main beam. It goes out when dipped
beam is selected.

ceably quicker.

Cooling fluid
Temperature Gauge
White Range - engine cold
Avoid over-revving the engine or labouring
Middle Range - normal
The temperature gauge needle should nor-
mally stay in this range. It is not unusual, when
the engine is being highly stressed, that the
needle tends towards the red range, but it
should return to the middle when the engine
loading is reduced.
Red Range-Warning
If the needle goes into the red range it means
that the engine is being overloaded (by high
outside temperatures) and the warning light
will come on.
Warning light
If the warning light comes on, check that the
cooling fan is working. If the fan is not rotating,
the V-belt may be slack or broken; if so, it must
either be tightened or renewed. In cars with
air-conditioning, the electric fan located in front
of the air-conditioning condenser must also
operate. If it does not, there is a fault in the po-
wer supply or the temperature switch.
Allow the engine to cool down and drive to the
nearest authorized workshop, keeping a con-
stant check on the temperature gauge.
Avoid idling, crawling and engine speeds over
4000 rpm.
Consult the chapter on the cooling system.
