22. Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Malfunction
Indicator Light — If Equipped
The "ESC Indicator Light" in the instrument
cluster will come on when the ignition switch
is turned to the ON position. It should go out
with the engine running. If the "ESC Indicator
Light" comes on continuously with the engine running, a
malfunction has been detected in the ESC system. If this
light remains on after several ignition cycles, and the
vehicle has been driven several miles (kilometers) at
speeds greater than 30 mph (48 km/h), see your autho-
rized dealer as soon as possible to have the problem
diagnosed and corrected.
The "ESC Malfunction Indicator Light" (located in the
instrument cluster) starts to flash as soon as the tires lose
traction and the ESC system becomes active. The "ESC
Malfunction Indicator Light" also flashes when TCS is
active. If the "ESC Malfunction Indicator Light" begins to
flash during acceleration, ease up on the accelerator and
apply as little throttle as possible. Be sure to adapt your
speed and driving to the prevailing road conditions.
NOTE:
• The "ESC Indicator Light" come on momentarily each
time the ignition switch is turned ON.
• Each time the ignition is turned ON, the ESC system
will be ON even if it was turned off previously.
• The ESC system will make buzzing or clicking sounds
when it is active. This is normal; the sounds will stop
when ESC becomes inactive following the maneuver
that caused the ESC activation.
23. Front Fog Light Indicator — If Equipped
This indicator will illuminate when the front fog
lights are on.
