Warning Light
The warning light comes on when the ignition
is turned on and goes out as soon as the cor-
rect operating pressure is reached. Should the
light come on during driving, this indicates that
the oil pressure is not correct.
In this case stop immediately.
If the oil level is correct the nearest garage
should be called in to rectify the fault.
Voltmeter
The voltmeter shows the overall condition of
the charging system. The needle should nor-
mally stay in the range 12-14 volts when the
engine is running. A temporary drop under 12
volts when starting the engine is normal.
Warning Light
The warning light checks the function of the
alternator. It comes on when the ignition is
turned on and goes out as soon as engine rpm
are high enough. If the warning light flickers or
comes on during driving, it can mean that the
fan belt is loose or broken. The fault could also
lie however in the regulator or the alternator.
In the' latter cases the journey can be conti-
nued but only to the nearest garage. Electrical
consumption should be kept to a minimum.
