coolant and starts supplying indications when the
fluid temperature exceeds approx. 50°C. Under
normal usage, the needle should hover around the
middle of the scale, depending on the way the vehicle
is used.
C - Low engine coolant temperature.

temperature is too high; in this case, stop the engine
and contact a Fiat Dealership.
If the needle for the engine coolant
temperature reaches the red area, stop
the engine immediately and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
