What is It
A fuel gauge is a device that informs the driver the amount of fuel. Be sure to
familiarize the location of your gas tank.
6
Fuel Gauge
When the car is not used, the engine is considered cold so as the engine
oil.
1. Open the car hood and secure the hood stand to prevent the hood
from falling.
2. Locate the dip stick (sometimes a written mark indicating an engine
oil is exposed.
3. Pull the dip stick and wipe the oil with a cloth or rag to remove oil on
the dipstick.
7
4. Put the dipstick again to the hole where the dipstick is located. For
one last time, remove the dipstick to see where the oil will be expose
to the mark of the dipstick.
8
The old engine oil is easy to look onto the dipstick. Unlike the new oil, it is
sometimes difficult to be noticed. It should at least be done three (3) to find the oil
accurately.
Oil level at full capacity must be at the F mark.
Oil level at 50% capacity is not applicable and it should be filled full,
only in the F mark of the dipstick.
Temperature Gauge

Radiator
Checking the coolant level
4. Starting System- provides cranking action to start the car. This system
relies on a battery to function. Hard starting is also cause by a defective
starter or the cables attached to it. Checking the starter is also involve in
preparing the vehicle because every time you drive, a starting is always
what you do.
10
5. Ignition System- generates sparks at high voltage, and ignites the air-fuel
mixture, which is compressed in the cylinders, at the proper timing.
One important part of the system is the battery that serves as the main
source of electrical energy. The battery should be handled properly to prevent
accidents. The automotive battery is a device that uses chemicals to produce
electricity. One the battery is used, its stored electricity is distributed to other
systems. The electricity that is being used can be replaced by means of charging
the battery. It is also called a wet cell battery that stores 12V (Volt) that supplies
electricity primarily for starting.
1. Low Maintenance Battery- consists of vent caps and is use for refilling a
battery solution when serviced.
2. Maintenance free Battery- no vent caps are exposed and no battery solution
is added.
