Peugeot 4007 I Indicators: Orange Warnings (2007-2012)

Orange warning lights on the Peugeot 4007 I (2007-2012) explained: what each lamp means and what you should do, from diesel preheating to ABS and ASC.

Orange lamps on your instrument panel tell you that a system has been switched on or that a fault has been detected. They are not always a reason to stop at once, but they do need your attention. This guide covers the first-generation Peugeot 4007 (2007-2012), based on the handbook edition for vehicles produced from 1 July 2011.

Some of these lamps depend on the version and equipment of your car, so you may not see every one of them on your instrument panel.

Rear foglamps

Rear foglamps warning lamp icon

This is the orange rear foglamp symbol. It stays on steadily while you are using the rear foglamps.

What to do:

  • To switch the rear foglamps on, turn the ring on the stalk forwards.
  • Switch them off again when you no longer need them.

Diesel preheating

Diesel preheating warning lamp icon

This is the orange diesel preheating symbol. It comes on steadily when you turn the ignition switch to the ON position.

What to do:

  • Wait until the lamp goes off before you start the engine.
  • How long it stays on depends on the weather conditions outside.

Emission control system

Emission control system warning lamp icon

This is the orange emission control system symbol. If it stays on or flashes, a fault has been detected with the system. It should go off a few seconds after you start the engine.

What to do:

  • If the lamp does not go off a few seconds after starting, or comes on or flashes while driving, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

ABS

ABS warning lamp icon

This is the orange ABS symbol. It comes on steadily, together with a message on the instrument panel screen, if a fault occurs with the anti-lock braking system. Your car still has conventional braking, but without the anti-lock assistance.

What to do:

  • Stop as soon as you can do so safely, as you are advised not to carry on driving.
  • Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Dynamic stability control system (ASC)

Dynamic stability control system (ASC) warning lamp icon

This is the orange ASC symbol. It comes on steadily, together with a message on the instrument panel screen, if a fault occurs with the dynamic stability control system.

What to do:

  • Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop without delay.

If You're Not Sure

If you are not sure which lamp is on or what it means, read the message on the instrument panel screen, check your handbook and, if in doubt, stop somewhere safe and contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop for advice.

Orange lamps on your Peugeot 4007 are an early warning, so it pays to act on them promptly. Keep this guide handy and you will always know what your instrument panel is telling you.
