Engine Temperature Warning Light

This light warns of an overheated engine condi-

tion. As temperatures rise and the gauge ap-

proaches H, this indicator will illuminate and a single

chime will sound after reaching a set threshold. Further

overheating will cause the temperature gauge to pass H,

a continuous chime will occur until the engine is allowed

to cool.
If the light illuminates while driving, safely pull over and

stop the vehicle. If the A/C system is on, turn it off. Also,

shift the transmission into NEUTRAL and idle the ve-

hicle. If the temperature reading does not return to

normal, turn the engine off immediately and call for

service. Refer to “If Your Engine Overheats” in “What To

Do In Emergencies” for more information.

Door Ajar

This light will illuminate to indicate that one or

more doors may be ajar.

Oil Pressure Warning Light

This telltale indicates low engine oil pressure. If

the light illuminates while driving, stop the vehicle and

shut off the engine as soon as possible. A chime will

sound when this light illuminates.
Do not operate the vehicle until the cause is corrected.

This light does not show how much oil is in the engine.

The engine oil level must be checked under the hood.
