Oil
Warning Light
If
you have
a
problem with
your oil, this light may stay
on
after
you
start your
engine,
or
come
on
when
you
are
driving.
This indicates that oil is not going through your engine
quickly enough to keep it lubricated. The engine could
be low on oil or could have some other oil problem.
Have it fixed right away.
The oil light could also come on in
three
other situations:
0
When the ignition is on but the engine is not running,
the light will come on as a test to show you it is
working, but the light will
go
out when you turn the
ignition
to
START.
If
it doesn't come on with the
ignition on, you may have a problem with the fuse or
bulb. Have it fixed right away.
0
Sometimes when the engine is idling at a stop, the
light may blink on and
off.
This is normal.

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

A
CAUTION:
Don't keep driving
if
the oil pressure is low.
If
you

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.
