WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
31)
IMPORTANT NOTES
IMPORTANT Warning lights are accompanied by a specific message and/or sound when
applicable. These indications are indicative and precautionary and as such must not be considered as exhaustive and/or
alternative to the information contained in the Owner Handbook, which you are advised to read carefully in all cases.
Always refer to the information in this section in the event of a failure indication.
IMPORTANT Failure indications displayed are divided into two categories: very serious and less serious failures.
Serious faults are indicated by a repeated and prolonged warning “cycle”.
Less serious faults are indicated by a warning “cycle” with a shorter duration. The display cycle of both categories can be
interrupted by pressing the MENU button. The instrument panel warning light will stay on until the cause of the
malfunction is eliminated.

LOW BRAKE FLUID/HANDBRAKE – ENGAGED
The warning light switches on when the ignition key is turned to MAR, but it should switch off after a few seconds.
Low brake fluid level
The warning light turns on when the level of the brake fluid in the reservoir falls below the minimum level, possibly due to a
leak in the circuit. On some versions the display shows the dedicated message.
Handbrake engaged
The warning light switches on when the handbrake is engaged.
On certain versions, if the car is moving the acoustic warning will also sound.
IMPORTANT If the warning light turns on when travelling, make sure that the handbrake is not engaged.
AIRBAG FAULT
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 stays on constantly if there is a fault in the airbag system.
On some versions the display shows the associated message.
