4. Engine Oil Pressure Gauge:
Indicates the pressure of the oil, not the
amount of oil in the system.
INFORMATION:
Please refer to manufacturer’s
instructions for specific oil pressure
recommendations.
NOTE:
When operating the engine cold, the
pressure will be considerably higher due
to increased viscosity (thickness) of the
oil.
WARNING:
If oil pressure drops and the WARNING
lamp illuminates, stop the engine and
check oil level.
5. Speedometer:
Indicates the speed in MPH and KPH.
6. Odometer/Trip Meter:
The trip button located below and to the
right of the speedometer is used to switch
between the odometer, two trip meters and
the transmission temperature. Select trip
meter 1 or 2 and hold the trip button down
for 3 seconds to reset.
7. Fuel Gauge:
The fuel gauge will register the approximate
fuel level in the tank when the ignition
switch is in the run position.
NOTE:
Fuel mileage varies with driving style
and road conditions. Always average
more than one tank of fuel to obtain
a more accurate figure. The diesel
generator uses fuel from the main tank
and will affect fuel mileage figures. The
diesel generator will not operate below
¼ tank to ensure there is enough fuel to
run the main engine.
8. Transmission Temperature:
Shows approximate temperature of the
transmission uid. DO NOT let the
transmission cooler oil temperature exceed
OEM speci cations. Refer to the readout on
the odometer if the needle indicates an out
of range condition. Stop the motorhome and
shift into neutral if excessive temperature
is indicated. Idle the engine at 1200 to
1500 RPM and allow transmission uid
temperature to return to normal.
9. Voltmeter:
Shows the charge condition of the chassis
battery. The normal voltage with the ignition
switch on and the engine off varies between
12.0 and 13 Volts. The battery charging
voltage is about 14.0 Volts while the engine
is running without a heavy load. Battery
readings of less than 10.5 Volts and more
than 15 Volts usually indicate a battery or
electrical system problem.
