The warning lights in the instrument cluster indicate the status of certain
functions or the presence of faults.
Some warning lights can be accompanied by acoustic signals and messages in
the display of the instrument cluster if required.
After switching on the ignition, some warning lights light up briefly as a func-
tion test. If the tested systems are OK, the corresponding warning lights extin-
guishes for a few seconds after switching on the ignition or after starting the
engine.
WARNING■ Ignoring light-up indicator lamps in the instrument cluster and the control
symbols in the display may cause serious injury or damage to the vehicle.■
If you have to stop for technical reasons, then park the vehicle at a safe
distance from the traffic, switch off the engine and activate the hazard
warning light system » page 52. Place the warning triangle at the prescri-
bed distance.
■
The engine compartment of your car is a hazardous area. The following
warning instructions must be followed at all times when working in the en-
gine compartment » page 120, Engine compartment .
Handbrake

lights up – the hand brake has been applied.
An audible warning is also given if you drive the vehicle for at least 3 seconds
at a speed of more than 6 km/h.
Braking system
Read and observe
on page 32 first.
lights up - the brake fluid level in the brake system is too low or there is an
ABS fault.
▶ Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine, and check the level of the brake fluid
» page 125 .
WARNING■
If the warning light lights up at the same time as warning light
» page 34 , Anti-lock braking system (ABS) , do not continue your
journey! Seek help from a specialist garage.■
A fault to the ABS system or the braking system can increase the vehi-
cle's braking distance – risk of accident!
Front seat belt warning light
Read and observe
on page 32 first.
lights up - the driver or front passenger has not fastened their seat belt.
At a speed of over 20 km/h the warning light flashes and an audible warning
sounds at the same time.
The warning signal is switched of and the indicator light is permanently lit if
the driver and front passenger have not fastened their seat belts within the

▶Switch off the ignition, start the engine again and travel a short distance.
▶ If the warning light does not go out, obtain assistance from an authorised
dealer.
Disconnecting the vehicle battery
If the vehicle's battery has been disconnected and reconnected, the warning
light comes on after switching on the
ignition.
The warning light should go out after driving a short distance.
If, after the motor is restarted and a short drive, the indicator light does not go
out, there is a system error.

flashes – the ESC or TCS is currently active.
lights up – there is an ESC or TCS fault.
▶ Seek help from a specialist garage.
As the ESC operates in conjunction with the ABS, the ESC warning light will al-
so come on if the ABS system fails.
If the warning light comes on after starting the engine, the ESC or TCS may
have been switched off for technical reasons. ▶ Switch the ignition off and on again.
If the warning light does not illuminate after you switch the engine back on,
the ASR is fully functional again.
Disconnecting the vehicle battery
If the vehicle's battery has been disconnected and reconnected, the warning
light comes on after switching on the ignition.
The warning light should go out after driving a short distance.
If, after a short drive, the indicator light does not go out, there is a system er-
ror.
▶ Seek help from a specialist garage.

lights up – there is an ABS fault.
The vehicle will only be braked by the normal brake system without the ABS.
▶ Seek help from a specialist garage.
In the event of an ABS fault, the other braking and stabilization systems are
turned off » page 103 , Braking and stabilisation systems .
WARNING■
If the ABS warning light together with the indicator light » page 32 ,
Braking system lights up, do not continue to drive! Seek help from a
specialist garage.■
A fault to the ABS system or the braking system can increase the vehi-
cle's braking distance – risk of accident!
Read and observe on page 32 first.
Change of tyre pressure values
lights up - there was a pressure change in one of the tyres.
An audible signal sounds as a warning. ▶ Immediately reduce speed and avoid sudden steering and braking manoeu-
vres.
▶ Stop the vehicle, turn the ignition off and check the tyres and their inflation
pressures » page 129 .
▶ Correct the tyre pressure if necessary or replace the affected wheel
» page 134 or use the repair kit » page 137.
▶ Save the tyre pressure values in the system » page 109.
System fault
flashes for approximately 1 minute and remains lit – there may be a fault in
the tyre pressure monitoring system.
▶ Stop the vehicle, turn the ignition off and start the engine again.
If the warning light flashes again after the engine has started, there is a
system error.
