Pontiac 2005 Grand Prix - Manual (Page 188)

REDUCED ENGINE POWER
This symbol comes on with
the REDUCED ENGINE
POWER warning message.
This warning message appears when the vehicle’s
engine power is reduced. This happens when driving
conditions, such as climbing a steep hill, make the
transaxle overwork in a gear that may cause damage
to the vehicle’s engine or transaxle. Reduced engine
power can affect the vehicle’s ability to accelerate.
This message will display only when the ignition is in
RUN. A chime will sound for two seconds while
this message is displayed. Press the set/reset button
to acknowledge this message and to clear it from
the screen.
This message will continue to display if it has not been
acknowledged when the engine is turned off. It will
also re-display for three seconds if the message has
been acknowledged, but the condition still exists
when the engine is turned off.
If the condition still exists, the message will re-appear
when the engine is turned on.
REMOTE START ACTIVE PRESS
HAZARD SWITCH TO CANCEL
This warning message will come on when a remote
start is initiated. If you would like to cancel the remote
start, turn on the hazard warning flashers. See
Hazard Warning Flashers on page 3-5.

attempt is unsuccessful. This may be caused by any of
the following conditions:

the DIC.
• The key is in the ignition.
• The hood or the doors are not closed.
• There is an emission control system malfunction.
• The engine coolant temperature is too high.
