Warning and indicator lamps
  Visual indicators which inform the driver of the occurrence of a malfunction (warning 
lamp) or of the operation of a system (operation or deactivation indicator lamp). 
   
When the ignition is switched on 
  Certain warning lamps come on for a few seconds when the ignition is switched on.  
When the engine is started, these warning lamps should go off.  
If they remain on, before moving off, refer to the information on the warning lamp 
in question.  
   
Associated warnings 
  The illumination, fi xed or fl ashing, of certain warning lamps may be accompanied 
by an audible signal and a message in the multifunction screen or in the central 
colour screen associated with the satellite navigation system.  
   
Warning lamps 
 
When the engine is running or the vehicle is being driven, the illumination of one of the follow-
ing warning lamps indicates a malfunction which requires action on the part of the driver. 
  The warning comes on in the instrument panel or appears in the central colour screen 
associated with the satellite navigation system. 
  If your vehicle has a screen, 
a warning lamp coming on is 
always accompanied by the dis-
play of an additional message, 
to assist you in identifying the 
problem. 
  If you encounter any problems, 
do not hesitate to contact a 
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed 
workshop.

temporarily, 
accompanied by 
a message.    A minor malfunction has 
occurred for which there is 
no specifi c warning lamp.   Identify the malfunction by reading the 
message displayed in the screen, such 
as, for example: 
   
 
-   the opening of the doors, boot or 
bonnet, 
   
-   the engine oil level, 
   
-   the remote control battery, 
   
-   the tyre pressures,  
 
-   saturation of the particle emission fi lter on 
Diesel vehicles (see "Checks - § Checks/
Particle emissions fi lter").  
 
For any other malfunctions, contact a 
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
