Engine Road Speed Governor
This system controls maximum vehicle speed
automatically and reduces engine power until vehicle
speed gets down to maximum governed speed.
A 75 mph (120 km/h) road speed governor is standard
for most models, but can be programmed to any
speed below that default setting. Other models have a
default setting of 80 to 85 mph (128 to 136 km/h).
You may have a label on the headliner of your vehicle
with more information on your engine road speed
governor. See your dealer for assistance with
programming your engine limited speed.
Safety Belt Reminders
Safety Belt Reminder Light
When the engine is started, a light will come on for
several seconds to remind people to fasten their
safety belts.
The safety belt light will
also come on and stay on
for several seconds.
Safety Belt Reminder Tone
If your vehicle has this feature, when the engine is
started, a tone will sound for several seconds to remind
people to fasten their safety belts.
Charging System Light
It should come on briefly when you turn on the ignition,
before the engine is running, as a check to show
that it is working.
If it stays on, or comes on while you are driving, have
your vehicle checked right away. You could have a loose
generator drive belt or some other problem.
Driving while this light is on will drain your battery. If you
must drive a short distance with the light on, turn off your
radio and other accessories. Sustained driving with a
generator failure could result in a lack of back-up braking
if the engine quits or the power steering pump should fail.
The charging system light
may be located in the
instrument panel cluster, or
with the auxiliary warning
lights in the center of
the instrument panel.
