This shows the temperature of the engine coolant fluid and begins working when the fluid temperature exceeds approx. 50°C.
Under normal conditions, the needle should hover around the middle of the scale according to the working conditions.
C - low engine coolant temperature.
H - excessive engine coolant temperature.
The turning on of the warning light (B) (on certain versions together with the message shown on the reconfigurable multifunction display) indicates that the coolant fluid temperature is too high; in this case, stop the engine and contact a Fiat Dealership.
If the needle reaches the red area, stop the engine immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.
