Tachometer

This is an electronic device featuring a hand fastened to a fulcrum in the centre of a round gauge. Grading and numbering (silver on dark grey background, in Sporting models) are surrounded by a narrow, colourless border to allow gauge green back lighting (red light in Sporting versions).

Kilometre counter

Roller devices located inside the tachometer gauge count the total and partial (trip counter) distance driven.

The six roller total kilometre counter counts up to 999999 km and is then resets automatically.

The four roller trip counter counts up to 999 km and then resets automatically. The fourth roller (white numbers on red background) counts the 1/10th of kilometre. This roller can be manually reset by pressing the reset button.

Warning lights

The warning lights are designed to disappear when not in use (negative symbol back lit on dark background). The warning lights and graphics are back lit by means of incandescent bulbs located behind the instrument.

Fuel level gauge

This gauge shows the amount of fuel present in the tank according to the following scale:

  • the upper reference mark (letter F) indicates a full tank (35 litres)
  • the lower reference mark (letter E) indicates an empty tank
  • the middle reference mark indicates a medium amount of fuel in the tank.

The gauge is electrically connected to the reserve level warning light in the warning light compartment next to the gauge. The reserve level warning light comes on to indicate there are 5 - 7 litres of fuel left in the tank.

Analogue clock

This electronic analogue clock is equipped with a clock adjustment device controlled by means of a button located on the clock face.

Each time the button is pressed the clock forwards one minute. If the button is kept pressed, the clock fast forwards automatically. Fast forwarding is interrupted by pressing the button again. The clock is back lit by means of an incandescent bulb located behind the instrument.
