collects two driving data of
any number of partial routes up to a total of 100 driving hours, 10,000
kilometers driven and a consumption of 1,000 liters of fuel. These data are
valuable for the calculation of average values for fuel consumption and
speed applicable to all driven partial routes.
If any of the aforementioned values are exceeded, the memory will be
deleted and the calculation will start over. As opposed to partialroute
memory, this memory is not deleted even if driving is not resumed within
two hours.
K
Memory consultation
To check data you must select the memory
function by pressing the "Reset" key for less than 2 sec.– Partial route memory – Multifunction indicator 1
– Total route memory – Multifunction indicator 2
You can visualize the following data:
• Driving time
• Average speed
• Distance driven
• Average fuel consumption

When towing the car with the engine shut down or in case of a breakdown
in the servo-steering mechanism, the power steering remains out of order.
Nonetheless, the vehicle continues to be steerable even though the effort to
handle the steering wheel is bigger.
K
Accelerator pedal faults (EPC)*
If there is a fault in the accelerator pedal working, a warning lamp
will go on. Have the fault repaired at a Technical Service Centre.
K
Glowplugs
(Diesel engines only)
When the engine isc co
ol

d
the warning lamp comes on when key is
turned to Drive position (ignition on).
If the warning lamp does not come on, there is a defect in the glow
plug system – call in expert assistance.
When the lamp goes out, start the engine immediately
⇒"Starting
the engine" chapter.
When the engine isw wa

the glow plug lamp does not come on –
the engine can be started straight away.

If a fault occurs in the diesel engine management system, it will indicated
by a flashing warning lamp. In this case, have the engine checked
immediately by a Technical Service Centre.
K
Indicators
The pilot light flashes at the same time as the indicator. If a turn
signal fails, the warning lamp flashes twice as fast. (Not when
towing a trailer).
For more information
⇒"Flashers and high beam lever" chapter.K
Coolant temperature/level*
The warning lamp* lights up for a few seconds as a functional
check when ignition is switched on.
If the lamp does not go out afterwards or lights up or flashes when
driving, either the coolant temperature is too high or the coolant
level too low. An acoustic signal will sound 3 times as an
additional warning:

It will also come on if a fault should occur in the ABS because the
TCS operates in conjunction with the ABS. For more information
⇒“Brakes”.K
Electronic stabilisation program (ESP)*
This program includes the ABS, EDL and TCS.
The warning light provides information on the electronic
stabilisation programme and has the following functions:
• It lights up when the ignition is switched on and should go out
again after a few seconds.
• It flashes when the ESP is activated when driving.
• It will light up continuously if there is a malfunction in the ESP.
• It will light up continuously if the ESP is switched off.
• It will also come on if a fault should occur in the ABS because the
ESP operates in conjunction with the ABS.
If the ESP warning lamp lights up and stays on immediately after
the engine is started, this may mean that the control system has
temporarily switched off the ESP. In this case the ESP can be
reactivated by switching the ignition off and then on again. If the
warning lamp goes out, this means the system is fully functional.

EDL operates along with the ABS in vehicles equipped with an Electronic

A malfunction in the EDL is indicated by the ABS warning lamp. Take the

Electronic immobiliser*
When switching the ignition on, the data from the vehicle key is
automatically processed. This procedure is confirmed by the
warning lamp lighting up briefly.
If a non-authorised key is used, the warning lamp will flash
permanently. The ignition will not work
⇒"Keys with remote
control" chapter.
K
Engine oil pressure/level*
The warning lamp lights up for a few seconds as a functional check
when ignition is switched on.
If the warning lamp is red or yellow or flashes it indicates that the
engine oil pressure or level is too low. This warning lamp will also
light up if there is a defect in the oil level indicator.

are immediately deactivated. The indicator on the driver’s door will
stop flashing. This warning light is fitted to vehicles equipped with
the locking security system or the anti theft alarm*.
When the vehicle is opened using the key, the locking security
system (double locking) is immediately deactivated. The anti theft
alarm will only be deactivated when the key is put in the ignition;
15 seconds are given to do this.
When the vehicle is opened, the interior lighting will come on for
30 seconds as if a door is open and the indicators will flash twice.
If, for any reason, the central locking ceases to function then, in
general, the drivers door and boot may be opened conventionally
using the key but neither the locking security system nor the anti
theft alarm can be activated.
