Driver's information Warning lamps and indicator lamps Warning and indicator lamps indicate a number of warnings → , faults → or other specific functions. Some warning and indicator lamps light up when the ignition is switched on and should go out once the engine is running or the vehicle is in motion. Depending on the version, additional text mes- sages could appear in the display on the instru- ment cluster to provide further information or to ask you to perform certain tasks → page 14. Depending on the vehicle equipment level, sym- bols may be displayed in the instrument cluster instead of warning lamps. Sound signals can also be heard when certain warning or indicator lamps light up.
