Warning Lights on Analogic
Instruments
Tell Tales on Speedometer
Following tell tales are displayed on
the speedometer, and related
messages are visible for 5 seconds on
sector 1 of the display, unless
otherwise indicated (see “TFT Display”
paragraph in this chapter).
Malfunction warning messages will be
stored in “Stored Messages” (see
example in picture).
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator
Light (MIL) is part of an
onboard diagnostic system,
called EOBD, that monitors
engine and automatic transmission
control systems.
Under normal conditions, this
indicator light should switch on when
the ignition switch is in
RUN position
and switch off as soon as the engine is
started.
This is a sign of the indicator light
working properly. If the indicator
remains lit or switches on while
driving, there is a failure in the fuel
supply/ignition and emission control
systems.
The failure could cause high exhaust
emissions, loss of performance, poor
vehicle handling and high
consumption levels.
Under these conditions you can
proceed slowly without forcing the
engine or driving at high speeds.
The indicator light will switch off if
the problem is solved.
The error will be registered by the
system in any case.
CAUTION!
• When the ignition switch is in the
RUN position and if the indicator
light does not switch on or if it
switches on while driving, contact
the
Maserati Service Network as
soon as possible.
• Prolonged driving with the MIL on
could cause damage to the engine
control system. It also could affect
fuel economy and drivability. If the
MIL is flashing, severe catalytic
converter damage and power loss
will soon occur. Immediate service is
required.
Left Turn Signal Indicator Light
The indicator lights up when
the left direction indicators or
the hazard lights are turned
on.
The indicator light will flash at the
same frequency of the turn indicators
