Warning Lights, Gauges and Indicators:
If you experience one or more of these
conditions, change the fuel brand you use.
It will require at least one full tank of the
proper fuel to turn the light off.
If none of the above steps have made the
light turn off, your dealer can check the
vehicle. Your dealer has the proper test
equipment and diagnostic tools to fix any
mechanical or electrical problems that may
have developed.
Emissions Inspection and Maintenance
Programs
Some state/provincial and local govern-
ments have or may begin programs to
inspect the emission control equipment on
your vehicle. Failure to pass this inspection
could prevent you from getting a vehicle
registration.
Here are some things you need to know to
help your vehicle pass an inspection:
Your vehicle will not pass this inspection if
the Check Engine light is on or is not work-
ing properly.
Your vehicle will not pass this inspection if
the OBD (on-board diagnostic) system
determines that critical emission control
systems have not been completely diag-
nosed by the system. The vehicle would
be considered not ready for inspection.
This can happen if you have recently
replaced your battery or if your battery has
run down. The diagnostic system is
designed to evaluate critical emission con-

trol systems during normal driving. This
may take several days of routine driving. If
you have done this and your vehicle still
does not pass the inspection for lack of
OBD system readiness, your dealer can
prepare the vehicle for inspection.

Oil Pressure Light

If you have a low engine oil pressure prob-
lem, this light will stay on after you start
your engine, or come on when you are
driving. This indicates that your engine is
not receiving enough oil.
The engine could be low on oil, or could
have some other oil problem. Have it fixed
immediately.
The oil light could also come on in three
other situations:
• When the ignition is on but the engine is
not running, the light will come on as a
check to show you it is working. The light
will go out after you start the engine. If it
doesn't come on with the ignition on, you
may have a problem with the fuse or
bulb. Have it fixed right away.

INSTRUMENT PANEL
• If you're idling at a stop sign, the light
may blink on and then off.
• If you make a hard stop, the light may
come on for a moment. This is normal.
WARNING
Don't keep driving if the oil pressure
is low. If you do, your engine can
become so hot that it catches fire.
You or others could be burned.
Check your oil as soon as possible
and have your vehicle serviced.
CAUTION
Operating your engine with the low
oil pressure light on can result in
severe engine damage which is not
covered by your warranty.
