Warning!
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous.
You or others could be badly burned by
steam or boiling coolant. You may want to
call an authorized dealer for service if your
vehicle overheats. If you decide to look under
the hood yourself, see “Maintaining Your
Vehicle”. Follow the warnings under the
Cooling System Pressure Cap paragraph.
Caution!
Driving with a hot engine cooling system
could damage your vehicle. If the
temperature gauge reads “H” pull over and
stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air
conditioner turned off until the pointer drops
back into the normal range. If the pointer
remains on the “H”, turn the engine off
immediately and call an authorized dealer
for service.
3. Instrument Cluster Display
The instrument cluster display
features a driver-interactive display.
Refer to “Instrument Cluster Display” in
“Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel”
for further information.
4. Fuel Gauge
The digital bar gauge shows the
amount of fuel in the tank.
Thewarning light turns on, a
message is displayed and there is an
acoustic signal when about 2.4 gallons
(9 liters) of fuel are left in the tank.
The fuel pump symbol points to the
side of the vehicle where the fuel door is
located.
Note: If the low fuel warning light
switches on, refuel at the earliest
opportunity.
5. Speedometer
Indicates vehicle speed.
Note: The hard telltales will illuminate
for a bulb check when the ignition is first
cycled.

In RACE mode, the consumption
indication index is not active and a sports
gearshift indicator is displayed. The
sports gearshift indicator is represented
by three yellow segments; if the third
indicator, characterized by the word
"SHIFT,” is on, it means that the gear
should be shifted.Trip A And B
For all driving modes (Dynamic, Natural,
Advanced Efficiency, and RACE) with the
ignition device ON, the "Trip computer"
can be used to display the measurements
regarding the operating state of the
vehicle. This function is characterized by
two separate records, called “Trip A” and
“Trip B” (the latter can be deactivated by
Information and Entertainment System),
where the “complete missions” (journeys)
are recorded in a reciprocally
independent manner.
“Trip A” and “Trip B” are used to display
the values relating to:
Distance travelled
Average fuel consumption
Average speed
Active trip

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL

The screen graphically reproduces some
parameters closely linked to the
efficiency of the driving style, with a view
to limiting consumption.
Advanced Efficiency
The three central icons on the screen
indicate the effectiveness of the driving
style, linked to the following parameters:
acceleration, deceleration and gear
shifts, with a view to limiting
consumption. The bar below the icons
shows current consumption and the
green line represents the optimal area.
The globe lights up gradually according to
lower consumption.
Dynamic The displayed parameters are related to
vehicle stability, the graphs illustrate the
trend of the longitudinal/lateral
accelerations (G-meter information),
considering gravity acceleration as a
reference unit.
Lateral acceleration peaks are also
indicated.
RACEThe displayed parameters are related to
vehicle stability, the graphs illustrate the
trend of the longitudinal/lateral
accelerations (G-meter information),
considering gravity acceleration as a
reference unit.
Lateral acceleration peaks are also
indicated.

Vehicle Range
Indicates the miles left before the fuel
tank is empty.
Displays the position by indicating the
cardinal direction.
8. Failure Warning Lights
Area dedicated to displaying failures, the
following symbols could be displayed on
rotation:
Low criticality symbols (yellow amber)
High criticality symbols (red)
9. Odometer
Indicates the total miles traveled.
U.S. Federal regulations require that
upon transfer of vehicle ownership, the
seller certify to the purchaser the correct
mileage that the vehicle has been driven.
If your odometer needs to be repaired or
serviced, the repair technician should
leave the odometer reading the same as
it was before the repair or service. If s/he
cannot do so, then the odometer must be
set at zero, and a sticker must be placed

in the door jamb stating what the mileage
was before the repair or service. It is a
good idea for you to make a record of the
odometer reading before the
repair/service, so that you can be sure
that it is properly reset, or that the door
jamb sticker is accurate if the odometer
must be reset at zero.

WARNING LIGHTS AND
MESSAGES ON THE
INSTRUMENT PANEL
The following pages consist of warning
lights and messages.
Note:
The warning light turns on together
with a dedicated message and/or chime
when applicable. These indications are
precautionary and as such must not be
considered as exhaustive and/or
alternative to the information contained
in the Owner’s Manual, which you are
advised to read carefully in all cases.
Always refer to the information in this
section in the event of a failure
indication.
The failure indicators appearing on
the display are divided into two
categories: very serious and less serious
faults. Serious faults are indicated by a
repeated and prolonged warning "cycle.”
Less serious faults are indicated by a
warning "cycle" with a shorter duration.
You can stop the warning cycle in both
cases by pushing the button located on
the windshield wiper stalk. The
instrument panel warning light will stay
on until the cause of the failure is
eliminated.

Red Warning Lights
Warning LightWhat It Means What To Do
INSUFFICIENT BRAKE FLUID/ELECTRIC PARK BRAKE
ON
This light monitors various brake functions, including
brake fluid level and parking brake application. If the
brake light turns on it may indicate that the parking brake
is applied, that the brake fluid level is low, or that there is
a problem with the anti-lock brake system reservoir.
If the light remains on when the parking brake has been
disengaged, and the fluid level is at the full mark on the
master cylinder reservoir, it indicates a possible brake
hydraulic system malfunction or that a problem with the
Brake Booster has been detected by the Anti-Lock Brake
System (ABS) / Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system.
In this case, the light will remain on until the condition has
been corrected. If the problem is related to the Brake
Booster, the ABS pump will run when applying the brake,
and a brake pedal pulsation may be felt during each stop.Operation of the Brake Warning Light can be checked by
turning the ignition switch from the OFF position to the
ON/RUN position. The light should illuminate for
approximately four seconds. The light should then turn
off unless the parking brake is applied or a brake fault is
detected. If the light does not illuminate, have the light
inspected by an authorized dealer.
The light also will turn on when the parking brake is
applied with the ignition switch in the ON/RUN position.
This light shows only that the parking brake is applied. It
does not show the degree of brake application.
For low brake fluid level, go to an authorized dealer to
have the system checked as soon as possible.
Release the electric park brake, then check that the
warning light has turned off.
If the warning light stays on, contact an authorized dealer.
ELECTRONIC BRAKING FORCE DISTRIBUTION (EBD)
FAILURE
The simultaneous turning on of the BRAKE (red) and
(amber) warning lights with the engine on indicates
either a failure of the EBD system or that the system is
not available. In this case, the rear wheels may suddenly
lock and the vehicle may swerve when braking abruptly. Drive very carefully to the nearest authorized dealer to
have the system inspected immediately.
