INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
- Temperature Gauge
- The temperature gauge shows the engine coolant temperature. Any reading within the normal range indicates that the engine cooling system is operating satisfactorily.
- The digital gauge will likely indicate a higher temperature when driving in hot weather, or up mountain grades. It should not be allowed to exceed the upper limits of the normal operating range.
NOTE: Driving with a hot engine cooling system could damage your vehicle. The digital warning light may switch on (together with a message on the display) to indicate that the coolant temperature is too high; in this case, stop the engine and contact a dedicated authorized dealership.
WARNING: A hot engine cooling system is dangerous. You or others could be badly burned by steam or boiling coolant. You may want to call an authorized dealer for service if your vehicle overheats. If you decide to look under the hood yourself, see “Maintaining Your Vehicle.” Follow the warnings under the Cooling System Pressure Cap paragraph.
- Tachometer
- This gauge measures engine revolutions per minute (RPM x 1000). Before the pointer reaches the red area, ease up on the accelerator to prevent engine damage.
- Speedometer
- Indicates vehicle speed.
- Fuel Gauge
- The digital display shows the amount of fuel in the tank.
- The switching on of the digital warning light indicates that 1 – 1.3 gallons of fuel are left in the tank; in this situation, refuel as soon as possible.
- Do not travel with the fuel tank almost empty; any gaps in fuel delivery could damage the catalytic converter.
- The fuel pump symbol points to the side of the vehicle where the fuel door is located.
- “Alfa DNA” Driving Mode Indicator
- This area of the cluster displays which driving mode the vehicle is currently in. A letter (d, n, or a) corresponding to the active driving mode (dynamic or race, natural, all-weather) and a dedicated message are shown on the display.
