Panel lamp switch
To illuminate the instruments, turn the control knob clockwise. The first movement of the knob will switch on
the lamps and further turning to the right will dim the lamps. The panel lamps will only operate when the
sidelamps are also switched on.
Direction indicator switch
The lever-type switch on the outer edge of the panel controls the flashing indicator unit. The unit will operate only
while the ignition is switched on and flashes the sidelamp and tail lamp, on the side of the car to which the switch
lever is moved, until it is automatically switched off. While the flashing unit is switched on, the warning light next
to the switch will show green.
Fuel gauge
This operates only when the ignition is switched on.
Choke or mixture control
To enrich the mixture and assist starting when the engine is cold, pull out the knob marked 'C' and lock it in
position by turning it anti-clockwise. Turn the knob clockwise and push it inwards to the normal running position
as soon as the engine is warm enough to run without the rich mixture. Never allow the engine to run for any
length of time with the knob pulled out.
