Warning lamps WARNING LAMPS AND INDICATORS
RED warning lamps are for primary warnings.
A primary warning must be investigated
immediately, seek qualified assistance if
necessary.
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
main 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 airbag 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 centre.
Note: Not all warning lamps are included in the
check (e.g. high beam headlamps and direction
indicators).

Fluid Low is displayed. Check the
brake fluid level and top-up as
necessary. If necessary, seek
qualified assistance before

If the lamp is illuminated and the message
Brake Fluid Low is displayed on the message
centre, loss of braking in one or both brake
circuits may be imminent. Stop the vehicle

reservoir, using the recommended fluid. If the
warning message remains, do not drive the
vehicle until the brake fault is rectified. Seek
qualified assistance before continuing.
If the lamp illuminates and the message EBD
