an
abnormally high
temperature.
If
this
happens,
the
light will flash
and
the
engine
should be
stopped
immediately and
the
cause
determined
and
corrected. When
the
engine
is
operating
at
normal
temperature
the
light should
not
appear.
FUEL
GAUGE
This gauge shows
the
approximate
fuel
level
in
the
tank.
ON
L Y
with
the
ignition
in
the
"ON"
position will
the
pointer
indicate
the
fuel level.
NOTE
:
Approximately
2 gallons
of
fuel
remain
in
the
tank
when the
fuel
gauge shows
empty.
LOW
FUEL
WARNING
LIGHT
The low fuel indicator (optional), left
of
the
fuel gauge, will illuminate
the
word
"LOW
FUEL"
when
the
fuel gauge
registers
about
one-sixteenth full and there
is
less
than
five gallons
of
fuel
in
the
tank.
Normal operation includes a
30
to
60
second delay, which also may cause
the
light
to
go
out
temporarily
under minor
braking.
.
ENGINE
OIL
PRESSURE
LIGHT
A red light
"OIL"
will appear when
the
ignition
is
turned
"ON,"
informing you
that
the
warning light
is
operational. When
the
engine starts and oil pressure builds up,
the
light will go
out.
Should
the
light go
on
while driving,
stop
the
engine immediately
and
check
the
cause
for
low oil pressure.
This
could be
the
result
of
dangerously low
oil level
in
the
crankcase (below
the
ADD
mark
on
the
oil gauge rod). Driving
the
car
with
low oil pressure can cause extensive
engine damage.
BRAKE
SYSTEM
WARNING
LIGHT
The service brake system
is
designed so
that
half
of
the
brake system will provide
some braking action
in
the
event
of
a
hydraulic leak
in
the
other
half
of
the
system.
If
the
red warning light, located
on
the
instrument panel glows continuously
when
the
ignition
is
on and
after
the
brakes
have been firmly applied, it
may
indicate
that
there
is
a malfunction
in
one
half
of
the
brake hydraulic system.
The
light will
go
out
when
foot
is
removed
from
brake
pedal.
•
As a check
on
bulb
condition,
the
light
should glow
with
the
parking brake
applied and
the
ignition on. (Light
is
also a reminder
to
release parking
brake.)
• Have system repaired
if
light does
not
come
on
during check.
• This warning light
is
not
a
substitute
for
the
visual check of brake fluid level
required as
part
of normal maintenance.
IF THE LIGHT GLOWS RED:
•
The
parking brake control
is
not fully
released or,
•
The service brake system
is
partially
inoperative.
