2. GASOLINE GAUGE-With ignition key in ON posillon the pointer will indicate the amount of fuel \0 gasoline tank.
3. ODOMETER-This group of numbers tells you tolal mileage the car has been driven in miles and tenths of miles.
4. TEMPERATURE GAUGE-Indicates engine coolant temperature. Pointer will normally slay near center while driving. If the pointer rises suddenly or remains on " H " while driving, stop car, turn oft engine and do not operate car until cause is located and corrected.
S. OIL PRESSURE LlGHT-A red glow informs you immediately if engine oil
pressure drops below normal. This light is

If light stays on while driving, do not operate car until cause of low oil pressure is located and corrected. Light indicates lack of oil pressure, not the amount of oil in the crankcase.
6. ALTERNATOR INDICATOR-Indicates whether battery is being charged (" e ") or discharged (" 0") . Pointer will normally stay centered while driving when battery is fully charged and no lights or accessories are in use.
7. TURN SIGNAL INDICATORS-Light flashes in unison with outside lights when turn signal is applied. On Monaco models the turn signal indicators are located, instead on the front edge of each front fender.
