Water in fuel filter

Drive carefully

What it means

Water has collected in the diesel fuel filter.

What to do

Stop at the next safe opportunity and have the filter drained, as water can damage the injection system. Avoid hard driving until then.

This is general guidance. Symbols differ between manufacturers, so check your owner's manual, and have a red warning light looked at before you drive on.
