INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS
INSTRUMENTS
Speedometer: Indicates the vehicle speed and total mileage.
The trip figures at the top of the speedometer face can be reset
to zero by pushing up the knob at the bottom of the speedometer
and tmning it to the right.
Tachometer: This instrument indicates the revolutions per
minute of the engine and thus assists the driver in determining
the most effective engine speed range for maximum performance
in any gear.
Oil Pressure Gauge: Indicates the engine oil pressure. The
pressure may rise to over 60 lb. per sq. in. (4.2 kg./cmP) when the
engine is started up from cold, but after the oil has circulated and
become warm the pressure should drop to approximately 60 lb.
per sq. in. (4.2 kg./cm.') with a proportionately lower idling
pressure. Should the gauge fail to register any pressure at all,
stop the engine immediately and investigate the cause.
Ignition Warning Light: Should glow red when ignition is
switched on and fade out when the generator starts charging the
battery. Failure to do so should be investigated immediately.
Main Beam Warning Light: A red glow appears when the head-,
lights are switched on, with the two beams straight ahead. The
light goes out when the headlights are dipped.
Fuel Gauge: The fuel gauge indicates the contents of the tank
when the ignition switch is 'On'.
Always ascertain that the ignition is switched off before
replenishing the fuel tank.
Water Temperature Gauge: This records the temperature of
the cooling water circulating in the cylinder block and radiator.
Under normal operating conditions this should be 164'F. (73'C.).
