Dash Instrumentation and Controls

The dash in your new King Aire is designed to be ergonomically efficient as well as aesthetically
pleasing. It features instrumentation that allows you to monitor the engine, chassis, and power
train as you drive.
Warning and status lights alert you to conditions that require your attention, and switches,
buttons, and accessories are positioned at your fingertips. All dash gauges are " back-lit" for
enhanced visibility during night driving. The gauges are arranged as follows:

Left Cluster

Voltage: Displays DC voltage at the chassis battery terminals. Note that some variation in the
readings on this gauge is normal. With the ignition key in the " run" position, but the engine shut
off, it will read chassis battery voltage. If the engine is running, the voltage displayed reflects the
DC voltage being supplied by the engine alternator as measured at the chassis batteries.
Fuel: Displays the approximate level of fuel left as a fraction of a tank (" Full" , " 3/4" , " 1/2" ,
" 1/4" , and " Empty" ). Note that accuracy of this gauge is greatly influenced by motion of the unit,
or sloped terrain. The readings are an approximation of the remaining fuel in the tank.
Front Air Tank: Displays the air pressure in the front air tank. The normal operating range for
this air system is 90 – 125 PSI. Air from the engine mounted compressor fills the tank when the
engine is running. The air is used to inflate air suspension bags, and to operate the air brakes on
your King Aire, as well as any other air powered accessories.
Rear Air Tank: Displays the air pressure in the rear air tank. The normal operating range for this
air system is 90 – 125 PSI. Air from the engine mounted compressor fills the tank when the
engine is running. The air is used to inflate air suspension bags, and to operate the air brakes on
your King Aire, as well as any other air powered accessories.

Center Cluster

Speedometer: Reads vehicle speed in miles per hour / kilometers per hour.
Odometer: Cumulative miles on your King Aire are displayed on the screen located at the
bottom of the speedometer. This electronic digital display allows for easy reading. The odometer
also incorporates two separate " trip" odometers, which can be reset to " 0" using the button at the
bottom of the display. This feature is useful for reference mileages when measuring fuel economy
or trip distances.

Right Cluster

Tachometer: Displays engine RPM' s (Revolutions per Minute) when running.
Oil Pressure: Displays engine oil pressure in PSI (Pounds per Square Inch). Oil pressure will
vary widely with engine temperature and engine operating RPM' s.
