Engine oil temperature gauge
This instrument shows the temperature of the oil in the engine.
The engine oil temperature gauge is located on the left side of the instrument panel.
With cold oil (below 60°С) the engine does not develop full power.
If in an exceptional case the pointer of the device enters the red zone of the scale, it is necessary to reduce the engine speed. The pointer should return to normal operating temperature.
If the arrow remains in the red zone for a long time, stop the car and turn off the engine.
Check engine oil level.
If the oil level is normal and the engine oil pressure warning light does not flash, you can follow the nearest workshop without giving the engine a high speed.
Tachometer
The tachometer shows the number of engine revolutions per minute.
The beginning of the red zone on the scale indicates the maximum allowable speed for a run-in and warm engine. Before the arrow enters this zone, you should shift to a higher gear or select position D of the selector, or ease the pressure on the gas pedal.
ATTENTION: The tachometer needle must never enter the red zone of the scale.
Coolant temperature gauge
The device displays the temperature of the coolant in the engine.
If the arrow is in the low temperature zone A, high engine speeds and a heavy load on it should be avoided.
Under normal driving conditions, the pointer should be in zone B of the indicator scale. If the engine is heavily loaded - above all at high outside temperatures - the pointer may move briefly to the right side of the scale. This is not a malfunction until the warning light comes on and the corresponding text appears on the display.
When the icon and message appear on the display, either the coolant temperature is too high or the level is too low.
If the pointer is in danger zone C, the signal lamp lights up, an icon and a warning message appear on the display. This means that the coolant temperature is too high or the level is too low. In this case, stop the car and turn off the engine. Check coolant level.
WARNING: Additional lights and other devices in front of the air intake impair radiator cooling. If the outside temperature is high and the engine is heavily loaded, there is a risk of overheating.
Fuel gauge
The capacity of the fuel tank is about 100 liters.
When the pointer reaches the red fuel reserve zone, an icon and a message appear on the display. At the same time, a warning signal sounds as a reminder to refuel. There is still about 12 liters of fuel left in the tank. This pointer only works when the ignition is on.
Voltmeter
The voltmeter shows the voltage in the on-board network.
The normal voltage is between 12 and 15 V. When many current consumers are switched on at the same time, the voltage, especially when the engine is idling, may drop to 12 V for a short time. To prevent excessive battery discharge, the current consumers are automatically switched off in this case.
If, during normal engine operation, the voltage is below 12 V for a long time, it is necessary to check the battery charge in a repair shop.
NOTE: When starting the engine, the voltage may be less than 8V.
