Note
ALWAYS adhere to all safety precautions for refuelling the truck.
I. Engine Oil Pressure Indicator
When the key switch is turned to the ‘ON’ position, with the engine at
rest, the engine oil pressure indicator should illuminate to verify the
light is working.
This indicator illuminates as a warning that the oil pressure has
dropped below a critical level.
If it illuminates during operation or when the engine is accelerated
above 1000rpm after starting, stop the engine immediately and check
the oil level.
See 5.3 Checking Engine Oil Level on page 47.
J. Low Fuel Indicator
The low fuel indicator is illuminated when the fuel in the tank falls to
a certain level.
When this indicator is illuminated the truck should be driven to a
refuelling point to be refuelled immediately.
See 5.2 Fuel Handling & Storage on page 43.
4.2.2. Control Panel Instruments and Indicators
Malfunction Indicator – MIL (If Fitted)
The MIL light (if fitted) is an amber coloured light located on the control
panel below the dash clusters.
It is only fitted to emissions certified LPG trucks.
It serves to notify the operator of a problem related to the emission
control system.
When the key switch is turned to the ‘ON’ position, with the engine at
rest, the MIL should illuminate to verify that it is working.
If the MIL is illuminated when the engine is running arrange for a
service as soon as possible.
Fuel Gauge (Diesel Engines Only – If Fitted))
The fuel gauge displays how much diesel remains in the diesel tank.
When the tank is full the needle points to 1.
As the fuel is consumed the needle moves anticlockwise from 1 to 0.
Note
Do NOT run the engine if the oil pressure indicator is illuminated. Check the
oil level on the dipstick. Check for engine oil leaks. Check the engine oil for
contamination. Check for faulty wiring.
