INSTRUMENTS
SPEEDOMETER fig. 25
Speed indicator.
REV. COUNTER fig. 26
Engine rpm indicator.
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 higher-
ing of the speed.
This is normal as it takes place during nor-
mal operation, for example when activat-
ing the climate control system or the fan.
In particular a slow change in the speed
preserves the battery charge.
FUEL LEVEL GAUGE fig. 27
This shows the amount of fuel left in the
fuel tank (see the indications given in para-
graph “At the filling station").

fig. 28F0H0024m
The reserve warning light Aturns on to
indicate that approx. 6 litres of fuel are left
in the tank.
Do not travel with the fuel tank almost
empty: the gaps in fuel delivery could dam-
age the catalyst.ENGINE COOLANT
TEMPERATURE GAUGE fig. 28
The turning on of the warning light Ain-
dicates that the coolant fluid temperature
is too high; in this case, stop the engine
and contact a Fiat Dealership.

WARNING
LIGHTS AND
MESSAGESFRONT PASSENGER
AIRBAG DISABLED
(amber)
The warning light
“comes on
when the front passenger’s airbag is dis-
abled.
With the front passenger’s airbag on,
when the ignition key is moved to MAR,
the warning light
“comes on steadily for
about 4 seconds; then, it continues to flash
for 4 seconds and finally goes off.
“
ABS SYSTEM FAILURE
(amber)
When the ignition key is
moved to MAR, the warning
light turns on and should go off after a few
seconds.
The warning light lights up when the sys-
tem is either not working or not available.
In this case, the braking system preserves
its efficiency unaltered without, howev-
er, offering the extra operating capacity of
the ABS system. Drive carefully and go to
a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
The display will show the dedicated mes-
sage.
>
FUEL RESERVE
(amber)
When the ignition key is
moved to MAR, the warning
light turns on and should go off after a few
seconds.
The warning light turns on when about 6
to 7 litres of fuel are left in the tank.
IMPORTANT The warning light flashes to
indicate a system failure. Go to a Fiat Deal-
ership to have the system checked.
KWhen the warning light
comes on, “it indicates that
a light failure has occurred
¬. In ad-
dition, the airbag system automati-
cally disables the airbag on the pas-
senger’s side (both front and side
airbags, where provided). Contact Fi-
at Dealership immediately to have
the system checked.
WARNINGGo to a Fiat Dealership as
soon as possible if the warn-
ing light
Udoes not light up
when the key is turned to
MAR or if, during car travel, the warn-
ing light comes on either steady or
blinking (along with a message on the
display). The operation of the warning
light
Umay be checked by the traf-
fic police using specific devices. Follow
the laws in force in the country where
you are driving.
