ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE TOO HIGH

The warning light switches on when the ignition key is turned to MAR, but it should switch off after
a few seconds. The warning light or symbol on the display lights up when the engine is overheated,
on some versions, together with a dedicated message on the display.
In normal driving conditions: stop the car, switch off the engine and check that the fluid level
in the reservoir is not below the MIN mark. In this case, wait for the engine to cool down, then
slowly and carefully open the cap, top up with coolant and check that the level is between the MIN
and MAX marks on the reservoir itself. Also check visually for any fluid leaks. If, when restarting, the
warning light switches on again, contact a Fiat Dealership;
If the car is used under demanding conditions (e.g. when fully loaded): slow down and, if
the warning light stays on, stop the car. Stop for two or three minutes with the engine running and
slightly accelerated to facilitate better coolant circulation, then turn the engine off. Check that the
coolant level is correct as described above.
IMPORTANT Over demanding routes, it is advisable to keep the engine running and slightly
accelerated for a few minutes before turning it off. On certain versions a dedicated message is
displayed.
