gauge and maximum temperature
warning light (fig. 87)
IMPORTANT The temperature of the
engine coolant may rise towards the maxi-
mum values by obstruction or dirt on the
outer part of the engine cooling radiator.
G - The warning lights
IMPORTANT The presence of the
warning lights may vary depending on
the type of engine and trim level.
This shows the temperature of the en-
gine coolant fluid and begins when the
fluid temperature exceeds about 50°C.
In this case you are advised to inspect
and remove any obstructions and have
the outside of the radiator washed as
soon as possible.
The pointer should normally be towards
the middle of the scale. If the pointer
reaches the higher temperature values
the request for vehicle performance
should be decreased.

Insufficient brake fluid
and/or handbrake on
This warning light stays on for about 15
seconds, after the end of the check,
when the level of the brake fluid falls be-
low the minimum, possibly due to a leak-
age in the system and when the hand-
brake is engaged.
The illumination of this warning light in-
dicates an excessive temperature of the
engine cooling fluid. In this case, stop the
car and contact Alfa Romeo Authorized
Services.
When the ignition key is turned to
MAR the warning light comes on but
must go out after approx. 6 seconds.
WARNING
If the warning light x
comes on while driving
check if the handbrake is not en-
gaged. If the warning lights stays
on with the handbrake not engaged,
stop immediately and contact Alfa
Romeo Authorized Services.
