Charging System Light

This light comes on briefly
when the ignition key is
turned to START, but the
engine is not running, as a
check to show it is working.

If it does not, have the vehicle serviced by your
dealer/retailer.

The light should go out once the engine starts. If it stays
on, or comes on while driving, there could be a problem
with the charging system. A charging system message
in the Driver Information Center (DIC) can also appear.
See DIC Warnings and Messages on page 3-56 for
more information. This light could indicate that there
are problems with a generator drive belt, or that there
is an electrical problem. Have it checked right away.
If the vehicle must be driven a short distance with the
light on, turn off accessories, such as the radio and air
conditioner.

Brake System Warning Light

Your vehicle’s hydraulic brake system is divided into
two parts. If one part is not working, the other part can
still work and stop you. For good braking, though,
you need both parts working well.

If the warning light comes on and the parking brake
is not applied, there is a brake problem. Have your
brake system inspected right away.

This light should come on
briefly when you turn the
ignition key to ON/RUN.

If it does not come on then, have it fixed so it will be
ready to warn you if there is a problem.
