INSTRUMENTS
All driving instruments are grouped in the instrument
cluster which is located immediately in front of the driver
to provide quick reading and maximum convenience and
accessibility. The TEMP-PRESS and GEN-FAN indicators
provide important information concerning the condition
of the engine and should be observed regularly during
operation of the car. The information on these pages
will help you understand the operation of these instru-
ments. The illustrations here and on page 10 w ill ac-
quaint you with the instrument cluster and the instrument
panel as a whole .
FUEL GAUGE
This electrically operated
gauge accurately indicates
the amount of fuel in the fuel
tank only when the ignition
switch is in the ON position.
When the ignition is "off",
the indicator pointer will not
necessarily return to the
empty IE) mark, but may stop
8
at any point on the gauge. Therefore, always be sure
that the ignition switch is "on" when reading the fuel
gauge.
SPEEDOMETER
Conveniently located in the instrument cluster di-
rectly ahead of the driver, the speedometer shows at a
glance the speed of the car in miles per hour. The
odometer, encircled within the speedometer dial, reg-
isters accumulated vehicle mileage .
