system error.
Seek help from a specialist garage.
The following reasons can explain the warning light being illuminated.

roads) the warning light in the instrument cluster can be delayed or does
not light up at all.
Note
The warning light illuminates after the ignition is switched on if the vehi-
cle's battery has been disconnected and reconnected. If the warning light does
not go out after moving a short distance, this means that there is an error in
the system. Seek help from a specialist garage.
