When the engine is started, these same

warning lamps should go off.

The illumination of certain warning lamps may

be accompanied by an audible signal.

The warning lamps may come on continuously

be determined whether the situation is

normal or a fault has occurred.

Refer to the tables in the following

pages for more information.

If they remain on, before moving off, refer to the

information on the warning lamp concerned.

Warning lamps

When the engine is running or the vehicle is being driven, illumination of one of the following warning lamps indicates a fault which requires action on
