SPEEDOMETER (speed
indicator)
Indicator A shows the speed of the car.
REV COUNTER
Indicator C shows the engine revs.
IMPORTANT The electronic injection
control system gradually shuts off
the flow of fuel when the engine
is over-revving, resulting in a gradual
loss of engine power.
When the engine is idling, the rev
counter may indicate a gradual or
sudden increase of the speed.
This is normal and does not indicate a
fault. It may be caused, for example, by
the activation of the climate control
system or fan. In these cases, a slow
change in revs is used to protect the
battery charge.FUEL LEVEL GAUGE
Needle E shows the amount of fuel left
in the tank.
E - tank empty.
F - tank full (see the description in
paragraph "Vehicle refuelling" in this
chapter).
The warning light on the indicator
switches on when there are about
10-12 litres of fuel (for versions with
tank capacity 90-120 l) or 10 l (for
versions with tank capacity 60 l)
remaining in the tank.
Do not travel with the tank nearly empty
to prevent damaging the catalytic
converter.
IMPORTANT The needle will point to E
and the warning light will flash to
indicate a fault in the system. If this is
the case, go to a Fiat Dealership to
have the system checked.
IMPORTANT It is not advisable to
activate the additional Webasto heater
in reserve conditions.ENGINE COOLANT
TEMPERATURE
INDICATOR
The needle D shows the temperature of
the engine coolant and starts
supplying indications when the fluid
temperature exceeds approx. 50°C. In
normal use, the needle could assume
different positions within the scale,
depending on the usage conditions.
C - Low engine coolant temperature.
H - High engine coolant temperature.
The warning light on the indicator
may light up (and a message on the
display may appear on certain versions)
to indicate that the coolant fluid
temperature is too high; in this case,
stop the engine and contact a Fiat
Dealership.

ENGINE OIL LEVEL
GAUGE
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The gauge provides a graphic indication
of the level of oil in the engine.
When the ignition key is turned to
MAR-ON, the display fig. 147 - fig. 148
shows the oil level by lighting up /
switching off five symbols.The gradual switching off of the
symbols indicates a decreasing oil level.
Four or five symbols light up to indicate
a sufficient level of oil in the sump. If
the fifth symbol is not lit, this does not
indicate a fault or that insufficient oil
is present in the sump.
If the oil level is lower than the minimum
required value, the display shows a
dedicated message indicating minimum
engine oil level and the need for a
top-up.
IMPORTANT To find out the correct oil
quantity, always check using the
dipstick (see paragraph “Checking
levels” in the section “Maintenance and
care”).
After a few seconds, the symbol display
indicating the amount of engine oil
disappears and:
❒When the next scheduled servicing
intervention is approaching, the
time to the next service is displayed
and the õ symbol lights up on the
display. When the service date is
reached, the display shows a
dedicated message;❒Later on, if the time for changing the
engine oil is getting close, the
distance until the next oil change will
appear on the display. When the
service interval has expired a
dedicated warning will be shown on
the display.
IMPORTANT
20) If the needle for the engine
coolant temperature reaches the
red area, stop the engine
immediately and contact a Fiat
Dealership.

These indications are indicative and precautionary and as such must not be considered as exhaustive and/or alternative to the
information contained in the Owner Handbook, which you are advised to read carefully in all cases. Always refer to the
information in this chapter in the event of a failure indication.
IMPORTANT Failure indications displayed are divided into two categories: very serious and less serious failures. Serious faults
are indicated by a repeated and prolonged warning "cycle". Less serious faults are indicated by a warning "cycle" with a shorter
