The instrument background colour
and type may vary according to the
versions.
SPEEDOMETER
Indicates vehicle speed.

F0T0805
128
F0T0806
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.
WARNING The needle will point to (E)
and the warning light (A) will flash to
indicate a fault in the system. If this
is the case, go to a Fiat Dealership to
have the system checked.

REV COUNTER
FUEL LEVEL GAUGE
This shows the amount of fuel left in the
fuel tank.
The rev counter shows the number of
engine revolutions per minute.
ENGINE COOLANT
TEMPERATURE
INDICATOR
Warning light (A) fig. 128 comes on to
indicate that approximately 6-7 litres of
fuel are left in the tank.
This shows the temperature of the
engine coolant fluid and starts working
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.
Warning light (B) fig. 128 may switch
on (together with a message on the
display) to indicate that the coolant
temperature is too high; in this case,
WARNING 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.
(E) - tank empty.
(F) - tank full (see the description in
paragraph "Vehicle refuelling" in this
chapter).
Do not travel with the tank nearly empty
to prevent damaging the catalytic
converter.
