If you make a hard stop, the light may come on for a
moment. This
is normal.

Don’t keep driving if the oil pressure is low. If
you do, your engine can become
so hot that it
catches fire. You or others could be burned.
Check your oil as soon as possible and have your
vehicle serviced.
NOTICE:
Damage to your engine from neglected oil
problems can be costly and is not covered by
your warranty.
Low Oil Level Light
LOW
OIL
~ Your engine is equipped
1 with an oil level monitoring
l system. When the ignition is
turned on, the
LOW OIL
~ level light will briefly flash.
If the light does not flash, have it fixed
so it will be
ready
to warn you if there’s a problem.
If the light stays on, stop the vehicle on
a level surface
and turn the engine off. Check the oil level using the
engine oil dipstick. (See “Engine Oil” in the Index.) If
the light does not flash, have the low oil level sensor
system repaired
so it will be ready to warn you if there’s
a problem.
The oil level monitoring system only checks oil level
during the brief period between key on and engine
crank.
It does not monitor engine oil level when the
engine
is running. Additionally, an oil level check is
only performed
if the engine has been turned off for a
considerable period of time, allowing the oil normally
in
circulation to drain back into the oil pan.
