DID Red Telltales

This area will show red telltales. These telltales include:

• Door Ajar

This light will turn on to indicate that one or

more doors may be ajar.

• Oil Pressure Warning Light

This telltale indicates low engine oil pressure. If

the light turns on while driving, stop the vehicle and shut

off the engine as soon as possible. The selectable gauge

will flash red for 3 seconds if the pressure is 10 psi or less.

The oil level should be checked under this condition.

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.

The oil level should be maintained in the ⬙SAFE⬙ zone at

all times. Oil level below the ⬙SAFE⬙ zone can cause the

oil pressure warning lamp to illuminate under some

conditions and can cause engine damage.

• Charging System Light

This light shows the status of the electrical charg-

ing system. If the light stays on or comes on while

driving, turn off some of the vehicle’s non-essential

electrical devices or increase engine speed (if at idle). If

the charging system light remains on, it means that the

vehicle is experiencing a problem with the charging

system. Obtain SERVICE IMMEDIATELY. See an autho-

rized dealer.

Refer to “Jump Starting Procedures” in “What To Do In

Emergencies” if jump starting is required.
