If in doubt, consult the manual...

I managed to get a copy of the KAP140 Pilot's Guide from our club. It does actually mention this phenomenon.

NOTE: Following the preflight test, the red P warning on the face of the autopilot may illuminate indicating that the pitch axis cannot be engaged. This condition should be temporary, lasting no more than 30 seconds. The P will extinguish and normal operation will be available.
