If a problem is detected, the light will come on while the

engine is running. Cycle the ignition key when the

vehicle has completely stopped and the shift lever is

placed in the PARK position. The light should turn off.
If the light remains lit with the engine running, your

vehicle will usually be drivable. However, see an autho-

rized dealer for service as soon as possible. If the light is

flashing when the engine is running, immediate service is

required. You may experience reduced performance, an

elevated/rough idle or engine stall and your vehicle may

require towing.

This telltale is on when the Electric Power

Steering is not operating and needs service.

Air Bag Warning Light

This light will turn on for four to eight seconds

as a bulb check when the ignition switch is first

turned to ON/RUN. If the light is either not on

during starting, stays on, or turns on while

driving, have the system inspected at an authorized

dealer as soon as possible. Refer to “Occupant Restraints”

in “Things To Know Before Starting Your Vehicle” for

further information.
Oil Temperature Warning Light

This telltale indicates engine oil temperature is

high. If the light turns on while driving, stop

the vehicle and shut off the engine as soon as

possible.
