| Master Caution | AMBER | A non-critical fault or warning has been detected in the D30S-7, such as a sensor issue or minor system alert. | Review the cluster for further details and schedule inspection soon. | |
| Check Engine (MIL) | AMBER | The D30S-7's engine management system has identified a problem affecting performance or emissions. | Continue operation with caution and arrange for diagnostics as soon as possible. | |
| Engine Oil Pressure | RED | Engine oil pressure has dropped dangerously low, risking engine damage on the D30S-7. | Shut off the engine immediately and check oil level and leaks. | |
| Battery / Charging | RED | The D30S-7's charging system is not working, and the battery is not being replenished. | Stop operation, inspect the alternator belt, and check battery connections. | |
| Coolant Temperature | RED | The engine coolant temperature is dangerously high, risking overheating on the D30S-7. | Turn off the engine and allow it to cool; check coolant level. | |
| Brake System | RED | A serious problem with the D30S-7's braking system has been detected. | Stop the forklift and do not operate until brakes are inspected. | |
| Parking Brake | RED | The parking brake is engaged while the D30S-7 is running. | Release the parking brake before moving. | |
| Low Fuel | AMBER | The fuel level in the D30S-7's tank is low and will soon require refilling. | Plan to refuel at the next opportunity. | |
| Glow Plug / Preheat | AMBER | The D30S-7's glow plugs are preheating the engine for cold start. | Wait for the light to turn off before starting the engine. | |
| DPF / Regeneration | AMBER | The diesel particulate filter on the D30S-7 needs regeneration due to soot buildup. | Follow the regeneration procedure as outlined in the operator's manual. | |
| DEF / AdBlue | AMBER | DEF (AdBlue) level is low in the D30S-7, which may affect emissions control. | Refill the DEF tank to avoid engine power reduction. | |
| Water in Fuel | AMBER | Water contamination has been detected in the D30S-7's fuel system. | Drain the water separator promptly to prevent injector damage. | |
| Hydraulic System | AMBER | A hydraulic system warning has been detected in the D30S-7, possibly due to low fluid or high temperature. | Check hydraulic fluid level and inspect for leaks. | |
| Hydraulic Oil | AMBER | The D30S-7's hydraulic oil level is low or the oil is overheated. | Top off hydraulic oil and monitor for recurring issues. | |
| Air Filter | AMBER | The D30S-7's air filter is clogged, reducing engine efficiency. | Inspect and replace the air filter as needed. | |
| Fuel Filter / Water Separator | AMBER | The fuel filter on the D30S-7 is restricted or the water separator needs servicing. | Replace the fuel filter and drain any water collected. | |
| Service / Hour Meter | AMBER | Scheduled maintenance is due based on the D30S-7's engine hours. | Arrange for scheduled service as soon as possible. | |
| Work Lights | GREEN | The D30S-7's work lights are switched on for enhanced visibility. | No action needed unless lights are not required. | |
| Beacon / Rotating Light | AMBER | The beacon light on the D30S-7 is active to alert others of forklift operation. | Ensure beacon is on in high-traffic or required safety areas. | |
| Overload / Capacity | RED | The D30S-7 has detected a load above its rated lifting capacity. | Lower the load immediately and reduce weight to within limits. |
