Instruments and Controls

Tire Pressure Light

For vehicles with the Tire Pressure
Monitor System (TPMS), this light
comes on briefly when the engine is
started. It provides information
about tire pressures and the TPMS.

When the Light is On Steady

This indicates that one or more
of the tires are significantly
underinflated.

A tire pressure message can
accompany the light. See Tire
Messages on page 5‑40
for more
information. Stop as soon as
possible, and inflate the tires to
the pressure value shown on the
Tire and Loading Information label.
See Tire Pressure on page 10‑60
for more information.

When the Light Flashes First and
Then is On Steady

This indicates that there may be a
problem with the TPMS. The light
flashes for about a minute and stays
on steady for the remainder of the
ignition cycle. This sequence
repeats with every ignition cycle.
See Tire Pressure Monitor
Operation on page 10‑63
for
more information.

Engine Oil Pressure Light

{

WARNING

Do not keep driving if the oil
pressure is low. The engine can
become so hot that it catches fire.

(Continued)

WARNING (Continued)

Someone could be burned. Check
the oil as soon as possible and
have the vehicle serviced.

Notice: Lack of proper engine oil
maintenance can damage the
engine. The repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
Always follow the maintenance
schedule for changing engine oil.

This light comes on briefly while
starting the engine. If it does not,
have the vehicle serviced by your
dealer. If the system is working
normally, the indicator light then
goes off.

If the light comes on and stays on, it
means that oil is not flowing through
the engine properly. The vehicle
could be low on oil and it might
have some other system problem.
