What the green and blue warning lights on your Peugeot 208 (2015-present) mean, from foglamps and indicators to dipped and main beam headlamps.
Green and blue lamps on your instrument panel are indicator lamps. They tell you about the operating status of a system, for example that a set of lights is switched on, rather than warning you of a fault.
This guide covers the Peugeot 208 first generation (2015-present), based on handbook edition ed01-18 for vehicles produced from 06/08/2018. Some lamps depend on the version or equipment of your car, so you may not see every lamp listed here.
