Is there a warning/indicator light "map"?

During a spirited drive, I was accelerating over a stretch of somewhat uneven highway - floored in 5th gear for just a few secs - when I noticed a blinking indicator light. Was too focused on the road to have a chance to ID the light/warning before it stopped (blinked for maybe 2-3 seconds).

I kind of remember the general vicinity of this light, which I thought was just above the dot matrix display. The most sensible thought is that it was the SLIP light (VDC was active), but I would have sworn that my blinking light was to the right of where the SLIP light illuminates - right above the MPG gauge... anyway, I'd like to see a full "map" of all the indicator lights as they would appear on the actual display (can't imagine why the manual doesn't provide this). The manual does show and define all the warning/indicator lights, but not their actual locations!

turn your car electrics ON not the car just push the button without putting your foot on the clutch and see the lights come on

I bet on that it was the VDC light that was on.

The VDC light is in the tacho area... this light was def closer/above the dot matrix display.... I really thought it was in the little panel where the battery light resides, but after further review it was most probably the SLIP light that I saw blinking. Thx fellas.
