serviced by a technician as soon as possible.

warning light is on, follow the directions in that part.
CHECK COOLANT LEVEL
-
2: This message
will appear when there is a low level of engine coolant.
Have the cooling system serviced by a technician as
soon as
possible.
CHECK FUEL GAUGE
-
39: This message will
appear when the fuel supply is less than 4 gallons
(15.2 L) and the display is turned off (digital clusters
only). A single chime will also sound when this message
is displayed.
CHECK GAS CAP
-
61: This message will appear if
the gas cap has not been fully tightened.
You should
recheck your gas cap to ensure that it's fully tightened.
CHECK OIL LEVEL
-
36: For correct operation of
the low oil sensing system, your vehicle should be on a
level surface. A false CHECK OIL LEVEL message
may appear if the vehicle is parked on grades. The oil
level sensing system does not check
for actual oil level
if the engine has been off for a short period of time, and
the oil level is never sensed while the engine
is running.
If the CHECK OIL LEVEL message appears, and your
vehicle has been parked on level ground with the engine
off for at least 30 minutes, the oil level should be
checked by observing the oil dipstick. Prior to checking
the oil level, be sure the engine has been
off for five
minutes and your vehicle is on a level surface. Then
check the dipstick and add oil if necessary. See "Engine
Oil'' in the Index.

25: This message will
appear for several seconds indicating that
you need
washer solvent.

appear for a few seconds when you select a speed
at
which to cruise.

141: A door other than the driver's
door is open or ajar when this message appears. The
vehicle's engine must be running and the transaxle not
in PARK (P) for this message to display. A chime will
also sound when the vehicle's speed is greater than
5 mph (8
km/h).
DRIVER DOOR A JAR
-
140: This message will
display when the vehicle is being shifted out of
PARK (P) with the engine running to signal that the
driver's door is open or ajar. A chime will also sound
when the vehicle's speed is greater than 5 mph
(8
km/h).
ENGINE COOLANT HOT, IDLE ENGINE
-
44:

temperature is over 248
"F
