Instrument explanations ⇒ꢀfig. 11:

(1)

Engine oil temperature indicator

The engine has reached operating temperature when the needle moves into the center of the

gauge under normal driving conditions. The needle may move farther to the right on the gauge

with a heavier engine load at high outside temperatures. This is not a cause for concern as

long as the _eor _Ôindicator light does light up or flash.or! Bookmark not defined..

Boost pressure indicator

The boost pressure indicator shows the pressure in the boost pressure duct between the su-

percharger or turbocharger and the engine. The farther right that the indicator points on the

gauge, the higher the pressure in the boost pressure duct and the greater the output from the

engine. The word “Turbo” on the gauge indicates the system is charged.

WARNING

Rapid acceleration can cause skidding and loss of traction, especially on slippery roads,

resulting in a loss of vehicle control, collisions, and serious personal injury.

ꢀ Only use the stopwatch feature or fast acceleration if visibility, weather, road, and traffic

conditions permit and other drivers will not be endangered by your driving and the vehicle's

acceleration.

Driving on today's roads demands the full attention of the driver at all times. Driver distrac-

tion causes accidents, collisions and serious personal injury!
