Engine Coolant Temperature Too High
The telltale lights up when the engine
has overheated.

In normal driving conditions : stop the car, turn off
the engine and check that the coolant 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, fill with coolant and check
that the level is between the MIN and MAX marks
on the reservoir itself. Also check visually for any
fluid leaks. Contact an authorized dealer if the
telltale comes on when the engine is started again.

If the vehicle is used under demanding
conditions (e.g. in high-performance driving):
slow down and, if the 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 previously.
Hood Cap Not Properly Shut
The telltale turns on when the hood cap
is not properly closed, along with the

sound when this telltale turns on. Do not operate
the vehicle until the cause is corrected. This
telltale does not indicate how much oil is in
the engine.

NOTE:
Do not use the vehicle until the failure has been
solved. The turning on of the telltale does not indi -
cate the amount of oil in the engine: the oil level
can be checked on the display upon entering the
vehicle and also by activating the “Oil level”
function on the Information and Entertainment
System.
Contact an authorized dealer as soon as
possible.

failure in the dynamic drive control
system.
Electric Park Brake Failure
The telltale will illuminate and a
message will display to signal a failure
in the electric park brake system.
This failure may partially or completely block the
vehicle because the park brake could remain
activated even if automatically or manually
disengaged using the relevant controls. In these
circumstances, you can disengage the park brake
following the emergency disengagement
procedure

Ú
page 89. If you are still able to drive the vehicle (park brake

of the Engine Immobilizer system.
Break-In Attempt The telltale will illuminate when
the ignition is cycled to ON position, to indicate a
possible break-in attempt detected by the alarm
system.
Electronic Key Not Recognized The telltale will
illuminate when the engine is started and the
electronic key is not recognized by the system.
Alarm System Failure The telltale will illuminate to
report an alarm system failure.
Contact an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
Exterior Lights Failure

The telltale will illuminate to indicate a
failure on the following lights: Daytime
Running Lights (DRLs) / parking lights /
trailer turn signal indicators (if present) /
trailer lights (if present) / side lights / turn signal
indicators / rear fog light / reversing light / brake
lights / license plate lights.
The failure may be caused by a blown bulb, a
blown protection fuse, or an interruption of the
electrical connection.
Replace the bulb or the relevant fuse. Contact an
authorized dealer.
Engine Oil Change Required —
If Equipped
The telltale is illuminated only for a
limited time.

NOTE:
After the first indication, each time the engine is
started the symbol will continue to illuminate as
previously described until the oil is changed.
If the telltale flashes, this does not mean that
there is a fault on the vehicle, rather it simply
reports that it is now necessary to change the
oil as a result of regular use of the vehicle. The
deterioration of engine oil is accelerated by
using the vehicle for short drives, preventing the
engine from reaching operating temperature.
Contact an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
WARNING!
If a failure is present with sharp braking, the
rear wheels may lock and the vehicle may
swerve.
CAUTION!
Deteriorated engine oil should be replaced as
soon as possible after the symbol is switched
on, and never more than 500 miles (805 km)
after it first switches on. Failure to observe the
above may result in severe damage to the
engine and invalidate the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty. When this symbol comes on, it does
not mean that the level of engine oil is low, so
if it flashes you do not need to top up the
engine oil.
