WARNING LAMPS AND
INDICATORS
The following warning lamps and
indicators alert you to a vehicle condition
that may become serious. Some lamps
illuminate when you start your vehicle to
make sure they work. If any lamps remain
on after starting your vehicle, refer to the
respective system warning lamp for further
information.
Note:
Some warning indicators appear in
the information display and operate the
same as a warning lamp but do not
illuminate when you start your vehicle.
Airbag Warning Lamp If it does not illuminate when you
switch the ignition on, continues
to flash or remains on when the
engine is running, this indicates a
malfunction. Have your vehicle checked
as soon as possible.
Anti-Lock Brake System Warning
Lamp If it illuminates when you are
driving, this indicates a
malfunction. Your vehicle
continues to have normal braking without
the anti-lock brake system function. Have
your vehicle checked as soon as possible.
Brake System Warning Lamp WARNING
Driving extended distances with the
parking brake engaged can cause
brake failure and the risk of personal
injury. It illuminates when you engage
the parking brake and the
ignition is on. If it illuminates when your vehicle is
moving, make sure the parking brake is
disengaged. If the parking brake is
disengaged, this indicates low brake fluid
level or a brake system fault. Have your
vehicle checked immediately.
Diesel Warning Lamps (If Equipped)
Diesel Exhaust Fluid Warning Lamp It illuminates when the diesel
exhaust fluid is low.
If it illuminates, the information
display message advises whether it is
diesel exhaust fluid level related or due to
a system malfunction. If the diesel exhaust
fluid level is sufficient, this indicates a
system malfunction. Have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible.
Glow Plug Indicator If it illuminates, wait until it turns
off before starting.
Water In Fuel Warning Lamp When you start the engine the
water in fuel indicator lamp turns
off after a short period of time.
If it illuminates when the engine is running
this indicates there is excess water in the
fuel filter. This occurs when approximately
7 fl oz (200 ml)
of water accumulates in
the fuel filter water trap. Have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible.
Alternatively you may be able to drain the
fuel filter water trap.
See
Draining the Fuel Filter Water Trap
(page 224).

Transit (TTH) Canada/United States of America, HK3J 19A321 AA enUSA, Edition date: 04/2016, First Printing Instrument Cluster E138644 E163176

Note:
If it illuminates when the engine is
running after draining the fuel filter water
trap, this indicates a fuel filter service is
required. Have your vehicle checked as soon
as possible.
Direction Indicator Flashes during operation. An
increase in the rate of flashing
warns of a failed indicator bulb.
Door Ajar It illuminates when you switch
the ignition on and remains on if
any door or the hood is open.

Warning Lamp If it illuminates when your vehicle
is moving, this indicates that the
engine is overheating. Stop your
vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so and
switch the engine off. Have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible.
Engine Warning Lamps WARNING
Under engine misfire conditions,
excessive exhaust temperatures
could damage the catalytic
converter, the fuel system, interior floor
coverings or other vehicle components,
possibly causing a fire. Have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible. Malfunction Indicator Lamp
Service Required Indicator Lamp If it illuminates when the engine is running
this indicates a malfunction. Drive in a
moderate fashion (avoid heavy
acceleration and deceleration) and have
your vehicle immediately serviced.
If it flashes when you are driving, reduce
the speed of your vehicle immediately.
If both lamps illuminate when the engine
is running, stop your vehicle as soon as it
is safe to do so. Continuing to drive your
vehicle may cause reduced power or the
engine to stop. Switch the ignition off and
attempt to restart the engine. Have your
vehicle checked as soon as possible.
Fasten Seatbelt Warning Lamp
It illuminates and a chime
sounds until you fasten the
seatbelts.
Headlamp High Beam Indicator It illuminates when you switch
the headlamp high beam on.
Ignition Warning Lamp If it illuminates when the engine
is running this indicates a
malfunction. Switch off all
unnecessary electrical equipment. Have
your vehicle checked as soon as possible.

STARTING A GASOLINE
ENGINE
Before starting the engine check the
following:
•
Make sure all occupants have fastened
their safety belts.
• Make sure the headlamps and
electrical accessories are off.
• Make sure the parking brake is on.
• Make sure the transmission is in park
(P).
When you start the engine, the idle speed
increases, this helps to warm up the
engine. If the engine idle speed does not
slow down automatically, have your
vehicle checked by an authorized dealer.
Note: Do not touch the accelerator pedal.
1. Fully press the brake pedal.
2. Turn the key to the on position to switch the ignition on.
3. Turn the key to the start position to start your vehicle. Release the key
when the engine starts.
Note: You can only operate the starter for
a limited period of time, for example 10
seconds. The number of start attempts is
limited to approximately six. If you exceed
this limit, the system will not allow you to
try again until a period of time has elapsed,
for example 30 minutes.
Engine Idle Speed after Starting
The speed at which the engine idles
immediately after starting will adjust
automatically to minimize vehicle
emissions and maximize cabin comfort
and fuel economy. The idle speed will vary depending on
certain factors. These include vehicle
component and ambient temperatures as
well as electrical and climate system
demands.
Cold or Hot Engine
If the engine does not start within 10
seconds, wait for a short period and try
again.
If the engine does not start after three
attempts, wait 10 seconds and follow the
flooded engine procedure.
If you have difficulty starting the engine
when the temperature is below -13°F
(-25°C), press the accelerator pedal to the
mid-way point of its travel and try again.
Flooded Engine
1. Shift into park (P).
2. Fully depress the accelerator pedal and
hold it there.
3. Start the engine.
Note: If the engine does not start, repeat
the cold or hot engine procedure.
STARTING A DIESEL ENGINE WARNINGS
Do not use starting fluid, for example
ether, in the air intake system (see
air filter decal). Starting fluids could
cause immediate explosive damage to the
engine. Failure to follow this warning could
result in fire, serious personal injury or
death. Do not add gasoline, gasohol, alcohol
or Kerosene to diesel fuel. This action
creates a serious fire hazard and will
result in poor engine performance. Engine
damage caused by the use of incorrect fuel
is not covered by the vehicle warranty. 113
