Indicator Lights

Seat Belt Reminder Light
This indicator lights when you turn
the ignition ON (II). It is a reminder
to you and your passengers to
protect yourselves by fastening the
seat belts. A beeper also sounds if
you have not fastened your seat belt.
If you do not fasten your seat belt,
the beeper will stop after a few
seconds but the light stays on until
you do. Both the light and the beeper
stay off if you fasten your seat belt
before turning on the ignition.

This indicator lights when the oil
pressure in the engine drops low
enough to cause damage. It should
light when the ignition is ON (II) and
go out after the engine starts. If this
light comes on when the engine is
running, there is a possibility of
serious engine damage. Safely pull to
the side of the road and shut off the
engine as soon as you can. Turn to
page 200 for instructions and
precautions on checking the engine.

1. It lights as a reminder that you
have set the parking brake.
Driving with the parking brake set
can damage the brakes and tires,
and cause the Anti-lock brake
system to turn off (see page
2. It can indicate the brake fluid level
is low if it remains lit after you
release the parking brake or
comes on while driving. This is
normally due to worn brake pads.

braking system for worn pads or
fluid leaks.
