Light test: As the engine is started, all the lights should come on for approx. 1 second. If this is not the case, a defective bulb or blown fuse may be the cause. Check and replace parts as necessary.

The indicator lights should go out as soon as the engine is running.

NOTE: Travel speed can be displayed in km/h or MPH. This setting can be made at the CommandCenter. In this section, see the Units of measurement screen in CommandCenter settings.

Fuel gauge

LX1036201-UN-31MAY06

The fuel gauge shows the amount of fuel in the tank, from full to empty (end of red). When the indicator needle enters the red, there are still approx. 35 liters (9.2 U.S. gal.) remaining.

Coolant temperature gauge

LX1036202-UN-31MAY06

If the coolant gauge needle moves into the red (A), the engine is overheating. Immediately reduce load or shift to a lower gear. If the needle remains in the red, shut off engine and determine cause of overheating (coolant level low, dirty radiator or dirty radiator screen).
