INSTRUMENTS
The instrument background colour and type may vary
according to the versions.
SPEEDOMETER fig. 11
This shows the speed of the vehicle.
REV COUNTER fig. 12
The rev counter shows the engine rpm.
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 behaviour is standard as it takes place during the
activation of the climate control system or the fan.
It should not be considered as a fault. In these cases,
a slow change in revs is used to protect the battery
charge.
FUEL LEVEL GAUGE fig. 13
The needle shows the amount of fuel left in the fuel
tank.
E tank empty
F tank full
The reserve warning light A comes on to indicate that
approximately 7 litres of fuel are left in the tank.
Do not travel with the fuel tank almost empty: the gaps
in fuel delivery could damage the catalytic converter.

FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures given in the table below
are determined on the basis of the type-approval tests
set down by relevant European Directives.
The procedures below are followed for measuring
consumption:
❒urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that
simulates urban use of the car;
❒extra-urban cycle: drive simulating the driving of the
car out of town with frequent acceleration in all
gears; the speed varies from 0 to 120 km/h;
❒combined consumption: the weighting is around 37%
urban cycle and 63% extra-urban cycle.IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic situations,
weather conditions, driving style, general conditions of
the car, trim level/equipment/accessories, load, climate
control system, roof rack, other situations that affect air
drag may lead to different fuel consumption levels than
those measured.
Fuel consumption according to the current European directive (litres/100 km)
