At movement of the car along twisting or hilly roads the error of the device increases. Functioning of the measuring instrument does not depend on position of the ignition key. The tag 1/1 corresponds to a condition of full gas station, 0 - to an empty tank. The control lamp which is built in the measuring instrument dial with the image of the gas station informs the driver on need at the first opportunity to make refueling of the car.
The combined measuring instrument of temperature of the cooling liquid / the current consumption of fuel/pressure of motive oil
The three-functional combined measuring instrument is located to the right of a speedometer and serves for indication of value of temperature of cooling liquid of the engine (the left lower sector), indications of the measuring instrument of the current fuel consumption (the top sector) and indications of the sensor of pressure of oil (the Right lower Sector).Measuring instrument of temperature of cooling liquid
In normal conditions temperature of boiling of the cooling liquid (antifreeze with the anticorrosive additives added to it) filled to the highway of system calculated on functioning with an excessive pressure makes about 130 °C. Under trying conditions operation, for example, in very hot weather or at long rise uphill the arrow of the index can rise to the top red mark in a scale. If temperature of the engine increased so that the arrow of the index comes into limits of red range of a scale of the measuring instrument, it is necessary to stop immediately the movement, to move down on a roadside, to park and make check of a condition of the cooling system regarding clarification of the reasons of an overheat of the engine (see the Head Routine maintenance, Diagnostics of malfunctions).Measuring instrument of the current fuel consumption
During the movement the measuring instrument constantly fixes the current fuel consumption in l / 100 km. In the modes of idling and compulsory idling of the shooter of the measuring instrument falls to 0.The movement at very low temperatures of external air, in an intense city cycle (the mode start feet), and also towage of the trailer and the movement in the mountain area are connected with the increased fuel consumption.
Index of pressure of motive oil
At a working temperature pressure of oil decreases on single turns. It has not an adverse effect on operational reliability of the engine. Squeezing of the accelerator pedal has to lead to increase in pressure of motive oil.Speedometer
