ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE TOO HIGH
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 turns on when the engine is overheated.
NOTE The screen-printed icon indicating excessive engine coolant temperature is only provided on versions with
reconfigurable multifunction display.
In normal driving conditions: stop the vehicle, switch off the engine and check that the water level in the reservoir
is not below the MIN mark. In this case, wait for the engine to cool down, then slowly and carefully open the
cap, top up with coolant and check that the level is between the MIN and MAX marks on the reservoir itself. Also
red
check visually for any fluid leaks. If, when restarting, the warning light switches on again, contact a Dealership.
(electric versions
If the vehicle is used under demanding conditions (e.g. in high-performance driving): slow down and, if the
excluded)
warning light stays on, stop the vehicle. Stop for two or three minutes with the engine running and slightly
accelerated to facilitate better coolant circulation, then turn the engine off. Check that the coolant level is correct
as described above.
WARNING Over demanding routes, it is advisable to keep the engine running and slightly accelerated for a few
minutes before turning it off.
ELECTRIC POWER STEERING FAILURE
The warning light switches on when the ignition device is brought to the MAR position, but it should switch off
after a few seconds.
If the warning light remains on, you could not have power steering and the effort required to operate the steering
wheel could increase considerably, however it is still possible to steer the vehicle. Contact a Dealership in this
case.
If the warning light comes on while driving you may not have steering assistance. Although it will still be possible
to steer the vehicle, the effort needed to operate the steering wheel could be increased: contact a Dealership as
soon as possible.
WARNING In some circumstances, factors independent of the electric power steering could cause the warning
red
light on the instrument panel to switch on. In this case, stop the vehicle immediately (if you are moving), stop the
engine for about 20 seconds (taking the ignition device to the STOP position) and then restart the engine. If the
warning light stays on, contact a Dealership.
WARNING The steering must be initialised after disconnecting the 12V battery. The warning light turns on to
indicate this. To carry out this procedure, slowly turn the steering wheel all the way from one end to the other or
drive in a straight line for about a hundred metres.
Contact a Dealership.
