The appropriate temperature for the car's water temperature gauge when starting is 90 degrees. Water temperature gauge explanation: Car water temperature gauges usually have two letters, C and H, or use white and red zones to differentiate. C stands for cold, and H stands for hot. If the water temperature gauge approaches the H or red danger zone, and the water temperature warning light comes on in severe cases, it indicates that the engine coolant temperature is too high. Causes of high water temperature: Coolant leakage or insufficient coolant can cause the engine water temperature to rise; a malfunctioning radiator fan can lead to an increase in antifreeze temperature, causing issues like overheating; a faulty circulation pump can slow down the coolant circulation, easily leading to engine overheating.
