Engine management* 
This warning lamp monitors the engine management system for petrol en-
gines.
The warning lamp  (Electronic Power Control) lights up when the ignition
is switched on while system operation is being verified. It should go out
once the engine is started.
If there is a fault in the electronic engine management system while you are
driving, this warning lamp will light up. Stop the vehicle and seek technical
assistance.
Glow plug system/Engine fault* 
The warning lamp lights up to show that the glow plugs are preheating the
diesel engine.
Safety Operation
The control lamp  lights up
If the control lamp  lights up when the engine is started it means that the
glow plugs are preheating. When the warning lamp goes off, the engine
should be started straight away.
Control lamp  flashes
If a fault develops in the engine management system while you are driving,
the glow plug system lamp will flash . Take the vehicle to a specialised
workshop as soon as possible and have the engine checked.
Soot accumulation in the diesel engine particulate filter*


If the control lamp  lights up you should help the filter clean itself by
driving in the appropriate manner.
To do this, drive about 15 minutes in fourth or fifth gear (automatic gear-
box: S gear range) at a speed of 60 km/h (37 mph), with the engine running
at approximately 2,000 rpm. In this way, the pollen build up in the filter is
burned. When cleaning is successful, the control lamp turns off.
If the lamp  does not turn off, or the three lamps turn on (particulate filter
, fault in the emission control system  and glow plugs ), drive the
vehicle to a specialised workshop and have the fault repaired at the earliest
opportunity.
