System which informs the driver of the
changes in the temperature of the engine
coolant while driving.

high; the max temperature warning
light 1 and the central STOP warn-
ing light come on, accompanied by

On petrol engines, the cooling of
the engine is managed electroni-
cally to improve consumption. Con-
sequently, the coolant temperature
levels are no longer simply linked
with the external ambient condi-
tions and the use of the vehicle.
For example, in town, it is normal
for the coolant temperature to be
slightly higher in cold weather than
in hot weather.
