This indicator reminds you that the
exterior lights are on. It comes on
when the light switch is in either the

or

position. This indicator

will also come on when the light
switch is in AUTO and the lights
turn on automatically. If you turn the
ignition switch to the ACCESSORY
(I) or the LOCK (0) position without
turning off the light switch, this
indicator will remain on. A reminder
chime will also sound when you open
the driver’s door.

This indicator comes on for a few
seconds when you turn the ignition
switch to the ON (II) position. It will
then go off if you have a properly-
coded remote. If it is not a properly-
coded remote, the indicator will blink
and the engine will not start (see
page

).

If you use the remote, this indicator
blinks several times when you turn
the ignition switch from
ACCESSORY (I) to the LOCK (0)
position.

If you use the built-in key, this
indicator blinks several times when
you turn the ignition switch from ON
(II) to the ACCESSORY (I) position.

This indicator normally comes on for
a few seconds when you turn the
ignition switch to the ON (II)
position, and when the ignition
switch is turned to the START (III)
position. If this indicator comes on at
any other time, there is a problem in
the ABS. If this happens, take the
vehicle to your dealer to have it
checked. With this indicator on, your
vehicle still has normal braking
ability but no anti-lock function. You
will also see a ‘‘CHECK ABS

SYSTEM’’ message on the multi-
information display (see page

).

For more information, see page

.

The left or right turn signal indicator
blinks when you signal a lane change
or turn. If the indicator does not
blink or blinks rapidly, it usually
means one of the turn signal bulbs is
burned out (see page

). Replace

the bulb as soon as possible, since
other drivers cannot see that you are
signaling.

When you press the hazard warning
button, both turn signals blink. All
turn signals on the outside of the
vehicle should flash.
