Engine Temperature
Indicator Light
This indicator light is provided in
the instrument cluster to quickly warn
" of an overheated engine. With the ig-
nition switch in the START position,
the red TEMP indicator will light to
let you know that it is operating prop-
erly.
When the engine is started, the red
light will go out immediately. It will
light up at no other time unless for
some reason the engine reaches a dan-
gerously high operating temperature.
If the red light should come on, the
engine must be stopped until the cause
of the overheating is corrected. Check
this light frequently as you drive.
Oil Pressure Indicator Light
This light will be on when the igni-
tion switch is turned on and should go
out after the engine is started. Occa-
sionally the light may be seen to flicker

However, if the light remains on dur-

rected. Driving the car with low oil
pressure can cause serious engine
damage.
