Dashboard problem

Hello,

I own a Golf mk1 from 1980, with a dashboard with a single gauge behind a pointy plastic round window.
My problem is that i don't know what the warning lights mean on the midlle side of the car between the radio bay and the gauge.
there are three leds ontop all colored white and two below these one colored yellow and one red.
I don't know what they mean since the little black plate with the symbols on are missing
on the picture the leds re not showing because they where loose.
Can someone please help me

thanks a lot

bottom is coolant temp warning lamp, glow plug warning lamp (diesel only) temp lamp is yellow when started untill warmed up then goes off.  red lamp come on with ignition and goes off when started.

Hello

Have you got any idea where I could get a full owners manual.
I bought my car without one, and i would like to have it.
If you should know a place where I could download it, it's just as good

Thanks a lot
