Indicator and warning lamps
The concept
The indicator and warning lamps can light up in
different combinations and colors.
Some lamps are tested for proper function by
briefly lighting up during starting of the engine
or when the ignition is switched on.
Explanatory text messages
Text messages at the upper edge of the Control
Display explain the meaning of the displayed
indicator and warning lamps.
Additional information, e.g. on the cause and
elimination of a malfunction, can be opened via
the Check Control system, refer to page 79.
In urgent cases, this information will be shown
as soon as the corresponding lamp comes on.
