With the ignition on (2nd notch): the following three warning lights illuminate on the sides of the instrument panel:
Brake fluid level and brake force distribution fault warning light. This light should go out after 3 seconds.If the warning light remains on, or if it comes on when the engine is running and the vehicle is moving, it indicates an excessive drop in the brake fluid level or a malfunction of the brake force distribution. Stop immediately. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Anti-lock braking system (ABS) warning light This should go out after 3 seconds.
If the warning light remains on or comes on above 8 mph (12 km/h), this indicates a malfunction of the ABS.

If no malfunction has been detected: the OK light comes on after two seconds (following a black screen), in the
absence of indicator lights showing the status of vehicle functions. If these indicator lights are present, the OK
button will come on after these. You may start your vehicle.
If a 'minor' malfunction has been detected: the warning light for the faulty function comes on. Certain indicator
lights showing the status of vehicle functions may also come on, followed by the OKindicator light. You can start
your vehicle ; however, contact a PEUGEOT dealer as soon as possible.
If a 'major' malfunction has been detected: the corresponding warning light comes on. Certain indicator lights showing
the status of vehicle functions may also come on. The OKindicator light does not come on. Do not start your vehicle.
