Speedometer
The instrument board provides a speed reading slightly higher than the actual speed, due to
safety reasons. This increase is calculated by the panel. Upon key-ON, the indicator reaches
0 (zero) k.p.h. (or m.p.h.) and the instrument board displays the vehicle speed information.
Revs counter
Upon key-ON, the indicator reaches 0 (zero) r.p.m. and the instrument board displays the
engine revs information. Moreover, a revs counter anti-oscillation logic is available in the
engine idle running conditions.
- in the temperature is included between 80° and 15°C (
normal operation
), the pointer will
remain stable in the middle of the scale;
Fuel level indicator
Two seconds after the key-ON, the indicator displays the fuel level information.
The indication corresponding to the start of the “fuel reserve” is red, and the relevant warning
light is made of an amber LED (positioned among the indicator’s graphic elements). The
indicator calibration ensures greatest accuracy at the start of the red sector.
Engine coolant temperature indicator
Two seconds after the key-ON, the indicator displays the engine coolant temperature
information.
The indication corresponding to the start of the “hazard area” is red, and the relevant warning
light is made of a red LED (positioned among the indicator’s graphic elements). The indicator
calibration ensures greatest accuracy at the start of the red sector.
Pointer behaviour:
- if the temperature is
≤
50°C, the pointer will position itself on the first mark/grade of the scale;
- if the temperature is included between 50°C and 80°C, the pointer will move linearly;

- if the temperature is included between 115° and 124°C (uphill) and between 120° and 115°C
(downhill), the pointer will move linearly.
