Voltmeter
When
your
engine is
not
running, but the ignition
is
on (in the
RUN
position),
this gage shows your
battery’s state of charge in
DC
volts.
When the engine is running, the gage shows the
condition
of
the charging system. Readings between the
low and high warning zones indicate the normal
operating range.
Readings
in
the low warning zone may occur when
a
large
number
of
electrical accessories
are
operating
in
the vehicle and the engine
is
left at
an
idle
for
an
extended period. This condition
is
normal since the
charging system
is
not able
to
provide full power at
engine idle.
As
engine speeds
are
increased, this
condition should correct itself as higher engine speeds
allow the charging system to create maximum power.
You can only drive for a short time with the reading in
either warning zone. If you must drive, turn
off
all
unnecessary accessories.
Readings in either warning zone indicate a possible
problem in the electrical system. Have the vehicle
serviced as soon as possible.
Electronic Road-Speed Governor
(Gasoline Engines) (Option)
This optional system automatically controls vehicle top
speed. The system controller receives a signal from
the
vehicle speed sensor and reduces power when the
vehicle speed reaches the maximum
65
mph
(
105
km/h)
governed speed.
