NOTE:
This light shows only that the parking brake is
applied. It does not show the degree of brake
application.
— Vehicle Security Warning Light — If
Equipped
This light will flash at a fast rate for approxi-
mately 15 seconds when the vehicle security
alarm is arming, and then will flash slowly until
the vehicle is disarmed.
— Engine Coolant Temperature Warn-
ing Light
This light warns of an overheated engine condi-
tion. If the engine coolant temperature is too
high, this indicator will illuminate and a single
chime will sound. If the temperature reaches
the upper limit, a continuous chime will be
sound for four minutes or until the engine is
able to cool: whichever comes first.
If the light turns on while driving, safely pull
over and stop the vehicle. If the A/C system is
on, turn it off. Also, shift the transmission into
NEUTRAL and idle the vehicle. If the tempera-
ture reading does not return to normal, turn the
54
engine off immediately and call for service.
Refer to "If Your Engine Overheats" in "In Case
Of Emergency" for further information.
— Battery Charge Warning Light
This light illuminates when the battery is not
charging properly. If it stays on while the engine
is running, there may be a malfunction with the
charging system. Contact your authorized
dealer as soon as possible.
This indicates a possible problem with the elec-
trical system or a related component.
— Oil Pressure Warning Light
This light indicates low engine oil pressure. If
the light turns on while driving, stop the vehicle
and shut off the engine as soon as possible. A
chime will sound when this light turns on.
Do not operate the vehicle until the cause is
corrected. This light does not indicate how
much oil is in the engine. The engine oil level
must be checked under the hood.
— Oil Temperature Warning Light
This telltale indicates engine oil temperature is
high. If the light turns on while driving, stop the
vehicle and shut off the engine as soon as
possible. Wait for oil temperature to return to
normal levels.
— Electronic Throttle Control (ETC)
Warning Light
This light informs you of a problem with the
Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) system. If a
problem is detected while the vehicle is run-
ning, the light will either stay on or flash de-
pending on the nature of the problem. Cycle the
ignition when the vehicle is safely and com-
pletely stopped and the transmission is placed
in the PARK position. The light should turn off.
If the light remains on with the vehicle running,
your vehicle will usually be drivable; however,
see an authorized dealer for service as soon as
possible.
NOTE:
This light may turn on if the accelerator and
brake pedals are pressed at the same time.
