INSTRUMENTS

SPEEDOMETER (fig. 103)

The speedometer shows the car

speed expressed in kilometres per

hour (km/h) and starts signalling

the speed when the car speed

exceeds approx. 4 km/h (see the

indications given in paragraph “At

the filling station").

REV COUNTER (fig. 104)

If the needle is in the hazard sector

(the section with red lines) it shows

that the engine is over-revving. Do

not travel with the needle in this sec-

tor.

When the engine is idling, the rev

counter may show a gradual or sud-

den increase in engine speed,

according to the case. This is normal

and indicates the operation of the

climate control compressor or fans,

etc. In particular, a gradual varia-

tion in engine revolution speed safe-

guards battery charge.

IMPORTANT The hazard sectors

can present different widths and dif-

ferent full scale values according to

the various car versions.

IMPORTANT The electronic injec-

tion control system will progressive-

ly cut off the flow of fuel when the

engine is over-revving and the

engine will consequently lose power.
