WARNING
Failure of the warning light

addition, the air bag system automatically

OVERHEATED ENGINE COOLANT
(red)
When the ignition key is turned to MAR, the warning
light turns on but should go off after a few seconds.
The warning light turns on when the engine is
overheated.If the warning light comes on, proceed as follows:
❒When travelling normally: stop the vehicle, stop
the engine and check that the coolant level in
the vessel is not under the MIN line. If it is, wait
for a few minutes to allow the engine to cool
down, then slowly and carefully open the vessel
cap. Top up with coolant fluid making sure that the
liquid level is included between the MIN and
MAX lines on the vessel. Also check for leaks. Go
to a Fiat Dealership if the warning light comes
on again when the engine is next started.
❒If the vehicle is used under demanding conditions
(e.g. towing trailers uphill or fully loaded): slow
down and, if the light stays on, stop the vehicle.
Stop for two or three minutes with the engine
running and slightly accelerated to assist better
coolant circulation. Then switch the engine off.
Check correct fluid level in the vessel as described
above.
IMPORTANT On particularly demanding journeys, it
is advisable to keep the engine on and slightly
accelerated for a few minutes before switching it off.
A specific message is displayed on certain versions.
