Transmission fault - AMBER (Auto gearbox cars only)
If the light illuminates while driving, a fault with the
automatic gearbox is indicated. In this eventuality,
reduced performance will be evident and engine speeds will be
limited to 3,500 rev/min approx.
You may continue driving but should exercise extreme caution
when carrying out any manoeuvre normally reliant upon the car's
speed and acceleration. On completion of your journey seek
qualified assistance before further vehicle use.
Engine malfunction - AMBER (diesel models only)
The light illuminates when the starter switch is turned
to position 'II' and extinguishes after approximately six
seconds. If it remains on, or illuminates at any other time, the
engine management system requires attention. Stop the car and
switch off the engine for at least 30 seconds; if the light illuminates
again after the engine is restarted, it is permissible to continue
driving, but qualified assistance must be sought as soon as possible
to prevent potential engine damage.
Anti-lock braking system - AMBER
The warning light illuminates when the starter switch is
turned to position 'II' and extinguishes after
approximately two seconds. If the light fails to extinguish, or
illuminates at any other time, there is a fault with the ABS system;
on completion of your journey, seek advice from your dealer
before further vehicle use.
