Bulb test: As the engine is started, all the lights (icons) should glow for approx. 1 second. If not, a defective LED or blown fuse may be the cause. Check and replace parts as necessary.

NOTE: Only lights related to functions that the tractor is equipped with will glow.

The indicator lights 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).

NOTE: When the gauge goes from the green to the red, approx. 18% of the total capacity is left in the tank.

NOTE: Never run the tank completely dry, otherwise you will have to bleed the fuel system.

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 does not go back immediately, stop the tractor and run the engine at slow idle. If that does not help, shut off the engine, determine the cause of overheating (coolant level low, dirty radiator or dirty radiator screen), and rectify.
