– Fuel level gauge:
The fuel level gauge informs the driver of the fuel level remaining in the tank using a bargraph. It also indicates a low
fuel level using a “fuel level low” warning consisting of a flashing red square.
–Speed display:
The speed display informs the driver of the current vehicle speed in km/h or miles/h depending on the
“distance units” configuration.
If the “Service” warning light and " - - " light up in place of the vehicle speed, refer to the “Service warning light
illumination” insert.
–Multifunction display:
The multifunction display centralises the following information:
–Mileometer,
–Trip mileage.
–Distance/time before service
–Cruise control/Speed limiter (depending on configuration)
–Clock (entry level version)
–Exterior temperature (depending on configuration)
It is possible to shift from one piece of information to another in the order above, simply by pressing the
“Trip computer” button located on the end of the windscreen washer control.
–Mileometer and trip mileage:
Respectively indicates the total distance travelled by the vehicle since it was manufactured and the distance
travelled since the trip mileage was last reset.
The distance travelled is displayed in “km” or “miles” depending on the configuration.
–Distance/time before service:
Shown on the multifunction display, indicates the distance to be travelled before the next service.
If the “Service” warning light and “Distance/time before service” warning light come on simultaneously, refer to the
“Service warning light illumination” insert.

If the “Stop” warning light and “Battery charge” warning light come on simultaneously, refer to the “Stop warning light
illumination” insert.
–Illumination of the “Oil pressure warning” warning light:
The “Oil pressure warning” warning light always comes on with the “Stop” warning light and the “Stop” buzzer
sounds. This warning light indicates a pressure fault in the engine lubrication circuit and indicates potential engine
damage.
This warning light comes on for 3 seconds when the + after ignition feed is activated (Test phase).
–Illumination of the “Coolant temperature warning” warning light:
The “coolant temperature warning” warning light always comes on with the “Stop” warning light and the “Stop”
buzzer sounds. This warning light indicates that the cooling circuit temperature is too high, and there is a risk of the
engine overheating and engine damage.
This warning light comes on for 3 seconds when the + after ignition feed is activated (Test phase).
–Illumination of the “ABS” warning light:
Illumination of the “ABS” warning light indicates the following statuses to the driver:
–Rapid flashing: ABS not configured.
–Slow flashing: ABS in configuration phase.
This warning light comes on for 3 seconds when the + after ignition feed is activated (Test phase).
If the “Service” warning light and “ABS” warning light come on simultaneously, refer to the “Service warning light
illumination” insert.

–Illumination of the “Particle filter” warning light:
Illumination of the “Particle filter” warning light indicates a minor particle filter fault to the driver.
If the “Service” warning light and “Particle filter” warning light come on simultaneously, refer to the “Service warning
light illumination” insert.
The New Twingo does not currently have a particle filter.
–Illumination of the “Major Electric Power-Assisted Steering fault warning” warning light:
Illumination of the “major electric power-assisted steering fault warning” warning light is requested by the electric
power-assisted steering up to 1 second after the engine is started.
If the “Stop” warning light and “Stop buzzer” are activated simultaneously, refer to the “Stop warning light
illumination” insert.
–Illumination of the “OBD” warning light
If the “OBD” warning light and “Service” warning lights come on simultaneously, refer to the “Service warning light
illumination” insert.
–Illumination of the “airbag fault” warning light:
Illumination of the “Airbag fault” warning light indicates an airbag warning light test phase by the instrument panel.
If the “Service” warning light and “Airbag fault” warning light come on simultaneously, refer to the “Service warning
light illumination” insert.
–Illumination of the “Passenger airbag disconnection” warning light:
Illumination of the “Passenger airbag disconnection” warning light indicates deactivation of the front passenger
