System Maintenance
In winter, the climate control system must be turned on
at least once a month for about ten minutes. Have the
system inspected at an authorized dealer before the
summer.
NOTE: The system uses R-1234yf coolant which does
not pollute the environment in the event of accidental
leakage. Under no circumstances should you use R-134a
fluid which, in addition to being incompatible with the
system’s components, contributes greatly to the green-
house effect.

1. Temperature Gauge•The temperature gauge shows engine coolant tem-
perature. Any reading within the normal range
indicates that the engine cooling system is operat-
ing satisfactorily.

temperature when driving in hot weather, or up
mountain grades. It should not be allowed to
exceed the upper limits of the normal operating
range.
NOTE: Driving with a hot engine cooling system could
damage your vehicle. The digital warning light may
switch on (together with a message on the display) to
indicate that the coolant temperature is too high; in this
case, stop the engine and contact a dedicated autho-
rized dealership.
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
