WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES  
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. In the event of a failure indication, always refer  
to the contents of this chapter.  
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 button. The instrument panel warning  
light will stay on until the cause of the malfunction is eliminated.
