Can someone tell me where the above should be or does it only come on when it's really cold?

It will flash up for a few seconds on the dash when you turn the key. It's orange, looks like a wire coiled up

That's the problem, the coil does not appear like the rest of the Ford cars I have owned. I thought they might have introduced a new
gimmick ie the glow plugs only heat when required by ambient temp. thus the light only appears when needed.

Help!!!!!!!!

I had a mondeo 54 diesel with a glow plug light and was surprised when I got the Smax as it didn't seem to have one. Just figured you didn't need to wait for glow plug (???showing my ignorance of mechanical issues?)
