General warnings

The warning lights come on in conjunction with a dedicated mes-
sage and/or a buzzer where appropriate. These indications are
brief and precautionary and as such must not be considered as
exhaustive and/or alternative to the information contained in the
Owner's Handbook, which you are recommended to read careful-
ly in all cases. Always refer to the information in this chapter in the
event of a failure signal.

When the ignition key is turned to MAR, the warning
light turns on but should go off after a few seconds.
The warning light (or symbol on the display) comes on
when the level of the brake fluid in the reservoir falls below the
minimum level due to possible leaks in the circuit.
A specific message will be shown on the display.
Handbrake on (red)
When the ignition key is turned to MAR, the warning light turns
on but should go off after a few seconds. The warning light (or
symbol on the display) comes on when the handbrake is on. If
the car is moving a buzzer is also triggered.
IMPORTANT If the warning light comes on with the vehicle in mo-
tion, check that the handbrake is not engaged.
