(Fig. 16)—Shows the
temperature of engine coolant.
Fuel Gauge
(Fig. 16)—Shows the amount of fuel in the
tank.
Low-Water Indicator
(Fig. 16)—Indicates low water
level in the cooling system.
Engine Oil Pressure Warning Light
(Fig. 16)—
Indicates dangerously low engine oil pressure.
Engine Coolant Temperature Warning Light
(Fig.
16)—The red light illuminates and the engine stops
when temperature of the coolant exceeds 110° C
(230° F)
Water-In-Fuel Indicator
(Fig. 16)—Indicates when
