discharged.
while the engine is running—the needle
should always indicate as shown above.

gine starting.

Tachometer

The tachometer indicates engine speed
Check
it
in thousands of rpm (revolutions per
minute). Use it while driving to prevent
engine over-revving.
Driving with the engine running too fast
causes excessive engine wear and poor
fuel economy. Remember, in most cases
the slower the engine speed, the greater
the fuel economy.
NOTICE
Do not let the indicator needle get
into the red zone. This may cause
severe engine damage.
