Indicator And Warning Lamps - CITROEN DS3 Owner's Handbook Manual

Indicator and warning lamps

Visual indicators informing the driver
that a system is in operation (operation
or deactivation indicator lamps) or of the
occurrence of a fault (warning lamp).
When the ignition is switched on
Certain warning lamps come on for a few seconds
when the vehicle's ignition is switched on.
When the engine is started, these same warning
lamps should switch off.
If they remain on, before moving off, refer to the
information on the warning lamp concerned.
The passenger airbag system operation
lamp stays on for about a minute after
switching on the ignition, even after the
engine has started.
Associated warnings
The switching on of certain warning lamps may
be accompanied by an audible signal and a
message on the multifunction screen.
The warning lamps may come on
continuously (fixed) or flash.
Certain warning lamps may come
on in two different modes. Only by
relating the type of lighting to the
operating status of the vehicle can it
be ascertained whether the situation is
normal or whether a fault has occurred.
