WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
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 chapter in
the event of a failure indication.
IMPORTANT Fault indications displayed are divided into two categories: serious and less serious faults. 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
button. The instrument panel warning light
will stay on until the cause of the malfunction is eliminated.
