Adaptive cruise control (if equipped) (RTT)

The speed control system indicator light changes color to indicate what
mode the system is in:

• On (white light): Illuminates when the adaptive cruise

control system is turned on. Turns off when the speed
control system is turned off.

• Engaged (green light): Illuminates when the adaptive cruise control

system is engaged. Turns off when the speed control system is
disengaged.

Airbag readiness

If this light fails to illuminate when the ignition is turned on,
continues to flash or remains on, contact your authorized dealer
as soon as possible. A chime will sound when there is a

malfunction in the indicator light.

Anti-lock brake system

If the ABS light stays illuminated or continues to flash, a
malfunction has been detected. Contact your authorized dealer
as soon as possible. Normal braking is still functional unless the

brake warning light also is illuminated.

Brake system warning light

To confirm the brake system warning light is functional, it will
momentarily illuminate when the ignition is turned to the on
position when the engine is not running, or in a position between

on and start, or by applying the parking brake when the ignition is turned
to the on position.

If it illuminates when you are driving, check that the parking brake is not
engaged. If the parking brake is not engaged, this indicates low brake
fluid level or a brake system malfunction. Have the system checked
immediately by your authorized dealer.
