Technical What does "RR. Indicat." mean?
"RR Indicat" is the right rear indicator (turn signal), but the problem is not necessarily the bulb. It could be the bulb, bulb holder, wiring or connectors.

As davren pointed out it means Right Rear inicator , mine comes up with this some times , but it is just the plug , on mine its got a bad earth on that side rear light
Strange thing: both rear indicators are working just fine. The warning in the cars display only shows when I use the brake! When pressing the brake the yellow bulb sign turns on and the display says "<RR indicat.", while the annoying beeps starts sounding.
Sounds like dodgy wiring/faulty earth connection somewhere causing the computer to think the rear indicator is lighting up when braking.
Yep that's what mine was doing, it will be the plug on to the board

Similar to the beloved puntos too
Whip the light cluster out
Clean the brake light bulbs contacts
Ensure clean contacts in holder
Clean the earthing pin connector
Ensure the multi plug is also clean and able to get a yight grip
This should cure the problem

it my Stilo 1.2 was contacts on the rear fog lamps (5th door). Bulb on rear fog lamps were good.
The car is too smart and makes an alarm if it does not.

It's a bad connection somewhere. My guess is that water is getting into the rear light cluster and is corroding the connectors or the base of the rear light bulb (which is a twin-filament (21/5W) bulb; it also contains the brake light filament ).
When you brake the extra resistance sends some current down the indicator circuit and sets off the bulb failure warning. I'd guess that the indicator is illuminating slightly when the brake light is on... but obviously you can't see it.
Remove the rear light cluster and check the condition of the metal panel under the screw-on bulb cover. If you remove the rear light bulb, check that you replace the right way round or you'll get a brighter rear light (21W) and dim (5W) brake light. The bulb should only be able to fit one way.. but note the "should"... the bulb holder is quite slack and it's possible to put the bulb in back to front.
When you replace everything make sure the seals are all seated properly. If there's condensation inside the lens then that's a sign that the cluster unit has been leaking. You might be able to see where the water has been getting in (stains on the foam backing) so you'll know where to focus on (use some sealant if approporiate).

Plus one for dry and clean everything around the light cluster. Change bulb also as I have known this to be the problem even when bulb looks fine .
