Do not remove the
reservoir cap when the
engine is hot: you risk
scalding yourself. ENGINE COOLANT fig. 5-6Check coolant level when the engine
is cold. The level should be included
between the MINand MAXrefer-
ence line on the reservoir.If the level is low, loosen the header
tank cap Aand slowly pour a mixture
of the fluid specified in the ”Lubricant
and fluid specifications” table in sec-
tion “Technical Specifications”,
through the filler neck until nearing the
MAXmark.
The antifreeze mixture contained in
the cooling circuit guarantees protec-
tion down to –40°C.

ENGINE COOLANT
TEMPERATURE GAUGE
Under normal conditions, the needle
of the temperature gauge should hov-
er around the middle of the scale. If
it approaches the red section it means
the engine is being overtaxed and you
should reduce your demands on it.
Warning light
ucomes on when the
coolant is too hot.
Even travelling too slowly when the
outside temperature is very hot can
cause the needle to approach the red
sector. In this case it is better to stop
and turn off the engine. After a few
moments you can start the engine
again and accelerate slightly. REV COUNTER
If the needle is in the red zone, it
shows your vehicle is overrevving.
This is only acceptable for a few mo-
ments.
IMPORTANTThe electronic in-
jection control system cuts off the
flow of fuel when the engine is “over-
revving”. This will lead to a loss of en-
gine power.
When the engine is running idle, the
revolution counter can indicate a
gradual or sudden revolution in-
crease. This is normal and should not
worry you, since it usually happens
during normal operations, such as the
climate system activation or the fan
activation. In particular, a slow revo-
lution variation is needed to preserve
the battery charge.FUEL GAUGE
This gauge indicates the litres of fu-
el present in the tank.
When warning light Kcomes on, it
indicates that between 5 and 8 litres
of fuel are left in the tank.
Do not travel with the fuel tank al-
most empty: the gaps in fuel delivery
could damage the catalyser.
