The fuel injector may be clogged?

Try a fuel injection cleaner when you next fill your fuel tank.
 
Find a garage that has suitable diagnostic equipment. If you leave it with them overnight, they can hook it up first thing in the morning and see if an error code is being generated.
I'm not certain but I think that the warning light denotes a problem with the whole ECU / management system and not just with the injector(s). Injector cleaner won't solve the problem (won't do any harm though) because a clogged injector wouldn't cause the light to come on.
If the problem seems to go away when the car is warm, it could point to the coolant temp sensor. I'd suggest having a look at all the electrical connections under the bonnet. One at a time, unplug them and look for any corrosion on the pins and plug them back in.
