Dashboard Instruments and Controls
This is a sign of the indicator light
working properly. If the indicator
remains lighted up or switches on
while driving, there is a failure in the
fuel supply/ignition and emission
control systems.
The failure could cause high exhaust
emissions, loss of performance,
poor vehicle handling and high
consumption levels.
Under these conditions you can
proceed slowly without forcing the
engine or driving at high speeds. The
indicator light will switch off if the
problem is solved.
The error will be registered by the
system in any case.
CAUTION!
•
When the ignition device is in the
RUN position and if the indicator
light does not switch on or if it
switches on while driving, contact the
Service Network as soon as possible.
•
Prolonged driving with the MIL on
could cause damage to the engine
control system. It also could affect
fuel economy and drivability. If
the MIL is flashing, severe catalytic
converter damage and power loss
may occur. Immediate service is
required.
Left Turn Signal Indicator Light
This indicator lights up when
the left turn signals or the
hazard lights are turned on.
The indicator light will flash
at the same frequency of the turn
indicators and is controlled by the stalk
switch lever.
If the vehicle electronics sense that the
vehicle drives for more than 1.6 km
(1 mile) with either turn signal on, a
continuous sound will alert the driver
to turn the signal off.
If the indicator flashes at a fast rate,
check for a defective exterior light
LED.
Tire Pressure Monitoring Light
This warning light is connected
to the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS). Under normal
conditions, the warning light should
illuminate when the ignition device is
in RUN and should go off as soon as
the engine is started.
If the warning light remains lit or
illuminates while driving, the pressure
of one or more tires is too low and a
message will be displayed.
The TPMS malfunction indicator is
connected to the low tire pressure
monitoring light.
When the system detects a
malfunction, the monitoring light
and the related message will flash for
approximately one minute and then
remain lit.
This sequence will continue upon
subsequent vehicle startups as long as
the malfunction lasts.
When the malfunction indicator lights
up, the system may not be able to
detect or signal low tire pressure
correctly.
For further information, : chapter
"Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)" in section "Safety".
Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS)
Malfunction Warning Light
This warning light, and its
related message, indicate
possible malfunctions of the
Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS).
The warning light will turn on when
the ignition device is in RUN position
and may stay on for 4 seconds. If
the ABS warning light remains lit or
turns on while driving, the Anti-Lock
portion of the brake system is not
functioning and requires service.
However, the conventional brake
system will continue to operate
