that monitors itself
The system runs a check on the warning
and indicator lamps marked by "
l

time you switch on the ignition. They each
light up once for different periods of time.
If a malfunction should occur in one of
these systems, the corresponding lamp
does not go out after the engine is started
or it lights up while the vehicle is moving.
You will see how to react correctly to this
