Dashboard Warning Lights - A Guide - See Owner's Handbook for full descriptions
Digital Display in Speedometer
On switching the ignition on, the display will show in turn:
- Maintenance indicator [spanner icon]
- Engine oil level indicator
- Total mileage recorder
Spanner Icon - Maintenance indicator
Displays the number of miles to be covered before the next service. If continuously lit this indicates that a service is due shortly. If it flashes then this indicates you have exceeded the service distance.
Engine Oil Indicator [Looks like an “F” to the right of the digital clock]
When the ignition is switched on, the maintenance indicator is displayed for several seconds followed by the engine oil level for approximately 10 seconds.
Max = oooooo
Min = 0_ _ _ _ _
Shortage = _ _ _ _ _ _
The indicator will flash if there is a problem with its operation.
Coolant Temperature Gauge & Coolant Temperature Warning Lamp - Lower left-hand corner gauge
If the needle enters the red zone, or if the warning lamp comes on, stop immediately, switch engine off – the cooling fan may continue to operate for a period after switching off – and allow to cool…
Engine Oil Temperature - Lower right-hand corner gauge
The gauge should be in the white sections. In no event should it go past the red zone. If it does, slow down and, if necessary, stop the engine and check the levels.
Fuel Gauge
When the low level warning light comes on continuously with the vehicle on level ground, there remains approximately 4 litres of fuel in the tank.
