SPEEDOMETER fig. 12
This shows the speed of the vehicle.REV COUNTER fig. 13
The rev counter shows the number of en-
gine revolutions per minute.
IMPORTANT The electronic injection
control system gradually shuts off the flow
of fuel when the engine is over-revving, re-
sulting in a gradual loss of engine power.
When the engine is idling, the rev counter
may indicate a gradual or sudden increase
of the rate.
This is normal and does not indicate a fault.
It may be caused, for example, by the op-
eration of the climate control system or
fan. In these cases, a slow change in revs
is used to protect the battery charge.

the tank.
E tank empty.
F full tank.
The reserve warning light A turns on to
indicate that approximately 7 litres of
fuel are left in the tank.

a fault in the system. If this happens, go
to a Fiat Dealership to have the system

This shows the temperature of the engine
coolant fluid and starts working when the
fluid temperature exceeds approx. 50 °C.
Under normal usage, the needle should
hover around the middle of the scale ac-
cording to the working conditions.
C
Low engine coolant temperature.
H High engine coolant temperature. Warning light B
may light up (and a mes-
sage on the multifunctional display may ap-
pear in certain versions) to indicate that
the coolant fluid temperature is too high;
in this case, stop the engine and contact
a Fiat Dealership.
If the needle reaches the red
area, stop the engine imme-
diately and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
