The system can issue two types of alarms:
- danger signals suggesting the need to immediately stop the car. In case of violations of the functions or operation of the car's organs, the corresponding symbols light up in red on the screen and are accompanied by three sound signals;
- warning signals that draw attention to organ malfunctions or dysfunctions. The corresponding symbols light up yellow and are accompanied by one beep.
Checking the performance of the BSC
With the ignition on and the engine off, briefly press the button located under the coolant temperature gauge, then check the ignition of the system control lamps one by one. Thus, the performance of the BSC is checked.
Application of BSC
After starting the engine, the display will show «Bremslicht» («Stop signal»), which should go out after pressing the brake pedal.
If the checked body or function is working, the screen displays the inscription «OK» («Everything is fine»). If such an inscription is not displayed or not a single symbol is displayed, check the correct operation of the BSC.
If the signal «Bremslicht» does not turn off, check:
- stop lamps;
- circuit breakers;
- brake light switch;
- wires and their connections.
If there is a malfunction in the function or organ being tested, an audible signal sounds and the following symbols may light up:
- for violations in the braking system - a vertical line enclosed in parentheses and placed in a circle.
This could mean:
- low brake fluid level;
- insufficient oil level in the hydraulic booster system;
- too low working pressure in the brake booster. In the first two cases, add liquid to the norm and check the tightness of the corresponding systems. In the second case, contact a service station to determine the cause of the drop in operating pressure;
- when the oil pressure deviates - the image of the oiler. In this case, stop the engine and check the oil level in the crankcase. If the oil level is normal, do not continue driving, do not start the engine even to idle and call the master;
- when the temperature or coolant level deviates from the norm - the image of a thermometer. Stop the engine, check the coolant level. If the coolant level is normal, let the engine cool down and contact a service station;
- when the brake pads of the front wheels are worn out - the symbol is a triangle in a circle. Urgently check the condition of the brake linings,
- in case of a faulty dipped beam headlight or reversing light - the symbol is a lamp in a triangle. Check and, if necessary, replace the lamp, the fuse or the corresponding plug;
- when the battery charging current deviates, a symbol representing the battery. Check the tension of the alternator drive belt, the voltage regulator and the health of the battery itself;
- in case of deviation of the fluid level in the windshield washer reservoir - the image of the reservoir in a triangle. Fill the tank;
- with a minimum fuel level in the tank - an image of a gas station. There is no fuel left in the gas tank. Refuel promptly.
