DASHBOARD LIGHTING
ADJUSTMENT (Brightness sensor)
(versions Sport with reconfigurable
multifunction display)
The versions Sport with reconfigurable
multifunction Display are provided with
a brightness sensor (located inside the
tachometer), able to detect the environ-
ment light conditions and, depending on
the measurement, to adjust the operat-
ing mode of the dashboard.
The instrument operates as follows:
❒in “daylight” mode, the display can be
set on 8 different levels, the dashboard
graphics are turned off and all the in-
dexes are fully lighted and cannot be
adjusted;
❒in “night” mode, the display, the graph-
ics and the indexes can be set on 8 dif-
ferent levels. The brightness of the bi-
zone automatic climate control system
display and of the car radio display is
accordingly adjusted.REV. COUNTER fig. 18
Rev counter shows engine rpm.
On diesel versions the rev counter end
scale value is 6000 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 pow-
er.
When the engine is idling, the rev counter
may indicate a gradual or sudden speed in-
crease. This is normal as it takes place dur-
ing normal operation, for example when
activating the climate control system or
the fan. In particular a slow change in the
speed preserves the battery charge.
fig. 18F0Q0607mfig. 17F0Q0606m
The brightness level depends on the set-
tings previously set by means of the Setup
Menu of the reconfigurable multifunctional
display (see “Dimmer” at paragraph “Re-
configurable multifunctional display”).
When travelling, the graphics lighting may
turn on if the lighting in the passenger
compartment changes from “daylight” to
“night” condition (e.g. when entering a
tunnel).

General features

(with ignition key at MAR), relating to the
operating status of the car. This function
comprises two separate and independent
trips: “Trip A” and “Trip B” concerning
the “complete mission” of the car (jour-
ney).
Both functions are resettable (reset - start
of new mission).
“Trip A” shall be used to display the fig-
ures relating to:
– Range
– Trip distance
– Average consumption
– Instant consumption
– Average speed
– Travel time (driving time).“Trip B” displays the figures relating to:
– Trip distance B
– Average consumption B
– Average speed B
– Travel time B (driving time).
Note“Trip B” function can be excluded
(see paragraph “Trip B On/Off”). “Range”
and “Instant consumption” cannot be re-
set.
Values displayed
Range
This value shows the distance in km (or
mi) that the car can still cover before
needing fuel, assuming that driving condi-
tions are kept unvaried. The display will
show “----” in the following cases:
– value lower than 50 km (or 30 mi)
– car left parked with engine running for
long.
IMPORTANT The variation of the auton-
omy value can be influenced by different
factors: driving style (see what is described
in paragraph “Driving style” in the chap-
ter “Start-up and driving”), type of route
(highways, urban, mountain, etc…), use
conditions of the car (load transported,
tire pressure, etc…). What was described
previously must be taken in consideration
when planning a trip.
