Re: coolant alarm
Mine used to run at 94 and after changing the water pump, thermostat and flushing then refilling with Carplan Premium Red Coolant it runs at 87/88 steadily.
I wouldn't worry at the temperatures you are reporting, but you may be able to lower them with a bit of maintenance on the cooling system, I'm very glad I did mine and it wasn't that hard.
Before anyone else chips in, this is with the sensor on the back of the bloc as per the instructions, other locations will produce different temperatures.
