WARNING LAMPS AND INDICATORS

RED warning lamps are for primary warnings.
A primary warning must be investigated
immediately by the driver or seek qualified
assistance as soon as possible.

AMBER warning lamps are for secondary
warnings. Some indicate that a vehicle system
is in operation, others indicate that the driver
must take action and then seek qualified
assistance as soon as possible

Other warning lamps within the instrument
panel indicate system status, such as blue for
high beam and green for direction indicators,
when in operation.

LAMP CHECK

A warning lamp bulb check is initiated when the
ignition system is switched on and lasts for 3
seconds (except for the air bag warning lamp
which will remain on for 6 seconds). If any
warning lamp remains on after this period,
investigate the cause before driving.

Some warning lamps have associated
messages displayed on the message center.

Note: Not all warning lamps are included in the
check.

CRITICAL WARNING MESSAGE (RED)

GENERAL WARNING/INFORMATION
MESSAGE (AMBER)

BRAKE (RED)

Illuminates when the brake fluid is low. The
warning lamp will also illuminate when there is
a fault with the Electronic Brakeforce
Distribution (EBD) system.

If the lamp is illuminated and the message
Brake Fluid Low
is displayed on the message
center, loss of braking in one or both brake
circuits may be imminent. Stop the vehicle
gently and check and top-up the brake fluid
reservoir, if necessary, with the recommended
fluid. If the warning message remains, do not
drive the vehicle until the brake fault is
rectified. Seek qualified assistance before
continuing.

Do not drive if the message Brake Fluid Low
is displayed. Check the brake fluid level and
top-up as necessary. If necessary, seek
qualified assistance before continuing.

Driving with low brake fluid can cause
increased braking distance or brake failure
and can result in a collision.

If the indicator is illuminated and the message
EBD Fault is displayed in the message center,
a fault with the EBD system is indicated. The
vehicle can still be driven and the braking
system will still function but without EBD
assistance.

Have the fault rectified by your
Dealer/Authorized Repairer.

Illuminates when a critical warning
message is available in the
message center.

Illuminates when a non-critical
warning message or an
information message is available
in the message center.
