2024 Maserati Levante Specs, Price, Features, Mileage And Review
Instrument Cluster
The instrument cluster is divided into three main areas displaying information, signs, text, and/or icon messages.
A – Analogue speedometer. It indicates the vehicle speed.
B – Analogue tachometer.
C – TFT display. In this area, the odometer display shows the total distance covered by the vehicle.
The speedometer and tachometer display the main warning lights (see “Warning and Indicator Lights on Analogue Instruments” in this chapter). The other warning lights are displayed on the TFT display together with mode and drive function indicators (see “TFT Display: Warning/Indicator Lights of Set Modes/Functions” in this chapter).
NOTE
The image shows the instrument cluster before starting the engine.
V8 – Gasoline (in example GTS version)
V6 – Gasoline
Diesel
Warning and Indicator Lights on the Speedometer
Following telltales are displayed on the speedometer, and related messages are visible for 5 seconds on the central sector of the display, unless otherwise indicated (see “TFT Display: Warning/Indicator Lights of Set Modes/Functions” paragraph in this chapter).
Gasoline
Diesel
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is part of an onboard diagnostic system that monitors engine and automatic transmission control systems.
Under normal conditions, this indicator light should switch on when the ignition switch is in the RUN position and switch off as soon as the engine is started.
This is a sign that the indicator light working properly. If the indicator remains lighted up 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 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 may 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 as the turn indicators and is controlled by the stalk switch lever.
If the vehicle electronics sense that the vehicle drives for more than 1.6 km (1 mile) with either turn signal on, a continuous sound will alert the driver to turn the signal off. If the indicator flashes at a rapid rate, check for a defective exterior light bulb.
Tire Pressure Monitoring Light
This warning light is connected to the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). Under normal conditions, the warning light should illuminate when the ignition switch is in RUN and should go off as soon as the engine is started.
If the warning light remains lit or illuminates while driving, the pressure of one or more tires is too low and a message will be displayed. The TPMS malfunction indicator is connected to the low tire pressure monitoring light.
When the system detects a malfunction, the monitoring light and the related message will flash for approximately one minute and then remain lit.
This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle startups as long as the malfunction lasts.
When the malfunction indicator lights up, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure correctly.
Please refer to “Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)” in the section “Driving” for further information.
Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) Malfunction Warning Light
This light, and its related message, indicate possible malfunctions of the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS).
The light will turn on when the ignition switch is in the RUN position and may stay on for 4 seconds. If the ABS light remains lit or turns on while driving, the Anti-Lock portion of the brake system is not functioning and requires service.
However, the conventional brake system will continue to operate normally if the warning light is switched off. If the ABS light turns on while driving, or if it does not switch on when the ignition switch is in the RUN position, please visit as soon as possible a Service Center to restore the Anti-Lock brake functions.
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light
The ESC activation/malfunction indicator light on the instrument cluster will display when the ignition switch is in the RUN position. It should switch off by starting the engine.
If the light stays on with the engine running, there is a malfunction in the ESC system.
If the light still stays on after several ignition cycles, and the vehicle has been driven for several kilometers at more than 48 km/h (30 mph) speed, visit the Service Network as soon as possible to have the problem diagnosed and restored.
NOTE:
Each time the ignition switch is in RUN:
- The ESC OFF indicator light and the ESC activation/malfunction indicator light illuminate temporarily.
- The ESC system will be on, even if it was turned off previously. The ESC system will make buzzing or clicking sounds when active. This is normal; the sounds will stop when the ESC becomes inactive by solving the problem that caused the ESC activation.
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) OFF Indicator Light
This indicator notifies that the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is disabled; the linked message will be displayed.
Warning and Indicator Lights on Tachometer
Following tell tales are displayed on the tachometer and related messages are visible for 5 seconds on the central sector of the display, unless otherwise indicated (see “TFT Display: Warning/Indicator Lights of Set Modes/Functions” paragraph in this chapter).
Gasoline
Diesel
Start&Stop Active Indicator
This telltale indicates that the engine has been switched off automatically by the Start&Stop system.
When the engine starts again, the telltale will switch off. If the telltale during an automatic engine shutdown (AutoStop) phase starts flashing, it will be necessary to restart the engine normally with the ignition device while holding down the brake pedal. See the chapter “Normal Starting of the Engine” in the section “Driving” for further information.
Rear Fog Light Indicator
This indicator lights up when the rear fog lights are switched on.
High Beam Indicator
This indicator lights up when the high beams are switched on or when blinking.
Brake Indicator Light
This light monitors various brake functions, including brake fluid level and parking brake engagement.
If the brake light illuminates the parking brake may be engaged, the brake fluid level may be low, or a problem with the anti-lock brake system (ABS) reservoir may have occurred.
In all the above situations, a related message will be displayed. If the light still illuminates when the parking brake has been disengaged, and the fluid level is at the full mark on the master cylinder reservoir, there could be a brake hydraulic system malfunction or a problem with the brake booster detected by the ABS/ESC system. If this occurs, the light will remain lit until the problem has been solved.
If the problem concerns the brake booster, the ABS pump will run when engaging the brake and a brake pedal pulsation may be felt during each stop of the vehicle.
The efficiency of one of the dual brake system cycles is indicated by the brake warning light, which will turn on when the brake fluid level in the master cylinder has dropped below a certain level.
The light will remain lit until the problem has been solved. If a brake failure occurs, visit the Service Network as soon as possible to check up on the brake system. In the event of an Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD) failure, both the brake indicator light and the ABS light illuminate.
Immediate repair of the ABS is required. Functioning of the brake warning light can be checked by turning the ignition switch from OFF to RUN position. The light should illuminate for approximately 2 seconds.
The light should switch off unless the parking brake is engaged or a brake fault is detected. If the light does not illuminate, have the light system overhauled by the Service Network. The light will also switch on when the parking brake is engaged with the ignition switch in the RUN position. This light only indicates the brake is engaged but not the clamping force of the parking brake to the wheels.
WARNING!
Driving a vehicle with the red brake light on can be very dangerous. Part of the brake system may have failed, resulting in increased braking distances and the risk of an accident. Have the vehicle checked as soon as possible at the Service Network.
Airbag Indicator Light
This light will illuminate for a few seconds for a bulb check when the ignition switch is in RUN. If the light does not illuminate while starting the engine, stays lit, or switches on while driving, have the system checked at the Service Network as soon as possible.
In the latter case, the message will remain displayed: to hide it, press on the steering wheel right side.
See “Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) – Air bags” in the section “Before Starting” for further information.
WARNING!
If the warning light remains ON or if it does not illuminate or illuminates while driving, contact your Service Network as soon as possible.
Right Turn Signal Indicator
This indicator lights up when the right direction indicators or the hazard lights are switched on. The indicator will flash at the same frequency as the turn indicators and is controlled by the turn signal lever. If the vehicle electronics sense that the vehicle drives for more than 1.6 km (1 mile) with either turn signal on, a continuous sound will advise the driver to turn the signal off.
If the indicator flashes at a fast rate, check for a defective outside indicator light bulb.
Seat Belt Reminder Light
When the ignition switch is in RUN, the seat belt reminder light will light up for a few seconds as a bulb check.
During the bulb check, you will hear an acoustic signal if one or both front seat belts are unbuckled.
After the bulb check or while driving, if the driver or front passenger seat belt is unbuckled, together with the acoustic signal the seat belt reminder light will light up.
WARNING!
Maserati urges you to use the seat belts correctly fastened and adjusted at all times. Correct use of seat belts can help reduce the risk of
serious injury in the event of an accident. Do not pass seat belts over sharp edges: they could tear. Do not pin anything to the seat belts. This could reduce their initial strength and cause them to tear in the event of a crash.
Refer to “Occupants Restraint Systems” in the section “Before Starting” for further information.
