Owner's Manual

Warning lights come on when there may be or
is
a
problem with one of your vehicle’s functions.
As
you will
see
in the details on the next few pages, some warning
lights come on briefly when you
start
the engine just to let
you know they’re working.
If
you are farniliar with
this
section, you should not
be
alarmed when
this
happens.
Gauges can indicate when there may be or
is
a problem
with one of your vehicle’s functions. Often gauges and
warning lights work together to let
you
know when
there’s a problem with your vehicle.
When one of the warning lights comes on and stays
on
when you are driving, or when one of the gauges shows
there may be a problem, check the section that tells you
what to do about it. Please follow this manual’s advice.
Waiting to do repairs can be costly
--
and even
dangerous.
So
please get to know your warning lights
and gauges. They’re a big help.
Your vehicle also has a Driver Information Center that
works along with the warning lights and gauges. See
“Driver Information Center” in the Index.
Safety Belt Reminder Light
When the key is turned to
RUN
or START, a chime will
come on for about eight seconds to remind people to
fasten their safety belts, unless the driver’s safety belt is
already buckled.
The safety belt light will
also come on and stay on
until the driver’s belt is
buckled.
