What does the dashboard say？
The dashboard is a very important part of the car, which provides real-time information about the running status of the vehicle, including speed, rotational speed, mileage, etc. Here are some basic operations and ways to view information about the dashboard:
Tachometer: Usually located in the center of the instrument panel, it shows the engine speed per minute. For the "how many revolutions" mentioned in the question, that is, the engine's speed, usually the normal speed should be between 700 and 800 revolutions per minute, but this depends on the specific model and engine performance. Too high or too low speed may affect the normal operation of the engine.
Speedometer: Displays the current speed of the vehicle to help the driver control the speed and ensure driving safety.
Odometer: Records the total number of kilometers the vehicle has traveled. Below the dashboard there is usually a display of accumulated kilometres, which is very helpful for knowing the mileage and maintenance cycle of the vehicle.
Warning lights: Various warning lights will also be displayed on the dashboard, such as engine temperature warning lights, battery warning lights, oil pressure lights, etc. When these lights are on, it indicates that the corresponding system may be faulty and needs to be checked immediately.
Special display for automatic transmission models: For automatic transmission models, the dashboard may also display gear information, such as P (parking), R (reverse), N (neutral), D (forward), etc. This is important for proper operation of the automatic transmission.
In short, being familiar with and understanding the functions of the car dashboard is the basic skill of every driver, which is directly related to driving safety and vehicle maintenance.
