x

Turning the ignition key to MARthe warning light on the dial turns on, but it should go off after
approx. 4 seconds.
The warning light turns on when the level of the brake fluid in the reservoir falls below the mini-
mum level, due to a possible leak in the circuit and when the handbrake is engaged.
u

approx. 4 seconds.
The warning light turns on together with the message + symbol on the reconfigurable multifunc-
tion display, when the engine is overheated. If it turns on when travelling, stop the car leaving the
engine on and slightly accelerated to further activate the circulation of the coolant fluid.
If the warning light does not go off within the next 2 or 3 minutes, stop the engine and contact
