    I pressed the Check button on the dash and consulted the user manual but it was not clear to me what this red symbol means.

    What is the Yellow symbol at the top? Power steering? Power steering fluid was low so I topped it up.

    No red lights are appearing during everyday driving. Only when I press the check button a few red lights show. Lightbulb, Temp and an Oil can (the one shown in pic)

    Could someone explain this light.

    Top one is the brake pad light.

    Pressing the CHECK button CHECK's different systems hence why you're seeing all the lights cycling through.

    But what is the red oil can light shown in the picture indicating? Is it telling me anything or just cycling through? Why is the red can underneath the brake pad light?

    The car is checking that the oil sensor and level are OK.

    Only when things illuminate when you're driving or from not pressing the CHECK button is when something is wrong.

    The oil can is below the pad light as its checking them both at the same time?
