Video tutorial

In this video, we can see an overview of the warning lights that appear on the dashboard of the Citroen Berlingo: at the bottom is the fuel reserve light; if you have a diesel vehicle, try to drive as few miles as possible with this light on, or you will collect all the dirt possible from the bottom of the tank.

The next light is the ESP warning light, and if it comes on while driving, it means the road is slippery and the wheels are trying to gain some grip.

If it stays on, it indicates a fault. Next, we see the seatbelt warning light: you must fasten it, then the passenger airbag activation warning, which may have been deactivated, followed by the driver's airbag light: this needs to be checked as soon as possible.

Be cautious with the rear fog lights on! The ABS warning light indicates a malfunction; then we have the diesel engine preheating light; the left and right indicators; the key-shaped indicator means you need to service the vehicle. The engine warning light indicates there is a problem with the vehicle's emissions; this blue light indicates that the main beam headlights are on; this green light is for the dipped headlights being on; this red light indicates that the handbrake is engaged, or that there is not enough brake fluid; this light indicates that the alternator is not charging: if the oil light comes on while driving, you must stop immediately.

Even if this red light comes on, you must stop immediately and allow the engine to cool for at least 15 minutes, keeping an eye on the coolant temperature. The self-explanatory light that comes on telling us "STOP" means we must stop immediately due to a serious vehicle fault.

The Service light, depicted as a yellow spanner, illuminates as scheduled to remind the driver that it is time for scheduled maintenance. This means that the set mileage has been reached, or the expected time has passed. The procedure involves turning on the instrument cluster, pressing the accelerator three times, and then turning off the ignition. After this, keep the brake pressed, turn the ignition back on, and then turn it off again. Upon the next ignition, you will notice that the light has been reset.
