Stability control (DSC) and
traction control warning lamp
Note: If either the DSC system or
traction control system malfunctions,
the respective system will switch off
automatically.
It will flash when either system
is operating. If it does not flash
or it comes on when you are
driving, this indicates a malfunction.
Have the system checked by a properly
trained technician immediately.
If you switch DSC off, the warning lamp
will come on. The lamp will go out when
you switch the system back on or when
you switch the ignition off.
Water-in-fuel indicator
It will illuminate if there is excess
water in the fuel filter. Drain off
the water immediately. See
Draining the fuel filter water trap
(page 106).
AUDIBLE WARNINGS AND
INDICATORS
Door open warning
The door open warning chime will sound
if you switch the ignition on and you have
not closed the doors, the bonnet or
tailgate properly.
Oil pressure warning lamp
CAUTION
Do not resume your journey if the
oil pressure warning lamp
illuminates despite the oil level being
correct. Have the system checked by a
properly trained technician immediately.
If the lamp stays on after
starting or illuminates during a
journey, this indicates a
malfunction. Stop your vehicle as soon
as it is safe to do so and switch the
engine off. Check the engine oil level.
See
Engine oil check (page 104).
Rear fog lamp indicator
It will illuminate when you switch
the rear fog lamps on.
Service interval indicator
It will illuminate when a service is
due or there is excessive soot
or sludge in the oil. Have the
engine oil changed as soon as possible.
Your Ford Dealer will switch the service
interval indicator lamp off for you after
completing the service.
Shift indicator
It will illuminate for a short
period of time to inform you that
shifting to a higher gear may
give better fuel economy and lower CO2
emissions. It will not illuminate during
periods of high acceleration, braking or
when the clutch pedal is pressed.
