KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR
The “GSI” (Gear Shift Indicator) system
advises the driver to change gear
through a special indication on the
display fig. 99.
Through the GSI, the driver is notified
that changing gear will allow a
reduction in fuel consumption.
Therefore, for driving oriented towards
reducing fuel consumption, it is
recommended to stick to "Natural" or
"All Weather" mode and to follow the
suggestions of the Gear Shift Indicator,
where the traffic conditions allow it.
When the SHIFT UP icon (
SHIFT) is
shown on the display, the GSI is
advising the driver to engage a higher
gear, when the SHIFT DOWN (
SHIFT) icon is displayed, it advises
the driver to engage a lower gear.NoteThe indication in the instrument
panel remains on until the driver shifts
gear or the driving conditions go back
to a situation where gearshifting is
not required to improve consumption.
WELCOME MOVEMENT
On some versions, when the key is
turned to MAR-ON, the following
occurs:
❒quick movement (up and down) of
the speedometer and rpm gauge;
❒lighting of graphic symbols/display;
❒displaying of an animated graphic
representation of the vehicle profile.
Gauge movement
❒If the key is removed from the ignition
switch whilst the gauges are moving,
they immediately go back to their
initial position.
❒Once they have reached the full scale
values, the gauges rest on the value
indicated by the vehicle.
❒The movement of the gauges stops
when the engine is started.Lighting of graphic
symbols/display
A few seconds after the key is inserted,
the gauges, graphic symbols and
display light up in sequence.
Display of graphic

ignition switch (with the doors closed),
the display remains lit up and shows
a graphic animation.
The display lighting is then dimmed
gradually until it goes out completely.
