AND CONTROLS
If the needle reaches the red
area, stop the engine immedi-
ately and contact a Fiat Deal-
ership.
ENGINE COOLANT
TEMPERATURE GAUGE fig. 20
The turning on of the warning light B in-
dicates that the coolant fluid temperature
is too high; in this case, stop the engine
and contact a Fiat Dealership.
This shows the temperature of the engine
coolant fluid and begins working when the
fluid temperature exceeds approx. 50°C.
Under normal conditions, the needle
should move to different positions of the
scale according to the working conditions
and engine cooling conditions.
FUEL LEVEL GAUGE fig. 19
This shows the amount of fuel left in the
fuel tank.
The reserve warning light A turns on to
indicate that approx. 7 to 9 litres of fuel
are left in the tank.
E - tank empty.
F - tank full (see the indications given in
paragraph “At the filling station").
Do not travel with the fuel tank almost
empty: the gaps in fuel delivery could dam-
age the catalyst.
IMPORTANT If the needle sets at the bot-
tom of the scale (low temperature) with
warning light B on, it means that the sys-
tem is malfunctioning. Contact a Fiat Deal-
ership to have the system inspected.
SPEEDOMETER fig. 21
It shows the engine speed.
The speed indicator end of scale values
can vary based on the version.
