It indicates the amount of fuel in the tank (Ref Fig. 9 on page 3-9).

on page 3-9). If oil pressure drops below 1 - 4 psi (.1 - .2 kg/cm
2
), the oil
pressure switch will activate the light. Check oil level (Refer to page 3-
29). If oil level is between ADD and FULL mark on dipstick, a mechani-
cal problem exists within the engine and the vehicle must not be
driven. Contact a local Distributor or authorized Branch.
To prevent engine damage, do not
operate engine until oil pressure is
corrected. Do not overfill engine. Too much oil may
cause smoking or allow oil to enter the air filter
enclosure.
