SPEEDOMETER
Shows the car speed (speedometer).
REV COUNTER
This indicates the engine rpm.
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.
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.FUEL LEVEL GAUGE
This shows the amount of fuel left in the fuel tank.
Warning light A fig. 3 comes on to indicate that
approximately 8-10 litres of fuel are left in the tank.
Etank emptyFtank full (see the instructions provided in the
"Refuelling the car" paragraph in this chapter).
Do not travel with the fuel tank almost empty: any
gaps in fuel delivery could damage the catalytic
converter.
IMPORTANT The needle will point to E and warning
light A fig. 3 will flash to indicate a fault in the
system. Contact a Fiat Dealership to have the system
checked.fig. 3
