The yellow engine mal-
function indicator
lamp comes on while
driving.
There is a malfunction in:
앫 The fuel management system
앫 The ignition system
앫 The emission control system
앫 Systems which affect emissions
Such malfunctions may result in excessive
emissions values and may switch the en-
gine to its limp-home (emergency opera-
tion) mode.
왘 Have the vehicle checked as soon as possi-
ble by an authorized Maybach Studio.
An on-board diagnostic connector is used
by the service station to link the vehicle to
the shop diagnostics system. It allows the
accurate identification of system malfunc-
tions through the readout of diagnostic
trouble codes. It is located in the front left
area of the footwell next to the parking
brake pedal.
Your fuel tank is empty. 왘 After refuelling, start, turn off, and re-
start the engine three or four times in suc-
cession.
The limp-home mode is canceled. You do not
need to have your vehicle checked.
