Tire Pressure Light
The tire pressure light should come
on briefly as the engine is started.
If it does not, have the vehicle
service by your dealer/retailer. It
provides information about tire
pressures and the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System.

This indicates that one or more of
the tires are significantly
underinflated.
A tire pressure message in the
Driver Information Center (DIC),
may accompany the light. See DIC
Warnings and Messages on
page 3-48 for more information.
Stop and check the tires as soon as
it is safe to do so. If underinflated,
inflate to the proper pressure.
See Tires on page 5-36 for more
information.
When the Light Flashes First and
Then is On Steady
This indicates that there may be a
problem with the Tire Pressure
Monitor System. The light flashes
for about a minute and stays
on steady for the remainder of the
ignition cycle. This sequence
will repeat with every ignition cycle.
See Tire Pressure Monitor System
on page 5-44 for more information.

Indicator Lamp
Check Engine Light
A computer system called OBD II
(On-Board Diagnostics-Second
Generation) monitors operation of
the fuel, ignition, and emission
control systems. It ensures
that emissions are at acceptable
levels for the life of the vehicle,
helping to produce a cleaner
environment.
This light comes on when the ignition
is on, but the engine is not running,
as a check to show it is working. If it
does not, have the vehicle serviced
by your dealer/retailer.
