Warning lights come on when there may be or
is
a
problem with one
of
your vehicle’s functions.
As
you
will see in the details
on
the next few pages, some
warning lights come on briefly
when
you
start the
engine just to let you know they’re working.
If
you are
familiar with this section,
you
should not be alarmed
when this happens.
Gages
can
indicate when there may be or is a problem
with
one
of
your vehicle’s functions.
Often
gages and
warning lights work together to
let
you
know when
there’s a problem with your vehicle.
When one
of
the
warning
lights
comes
on
and
stays
on
when you are driving, or when one
of
the gages shows
there may be a problem, check the section that tells you
what to
do
about
it.
Please follow this
manual’s
advice.
Waiting to
do
repairs can be costly
--
and even
dangerous.
So
please get
to
know your warning lights
and
gages. They’re a big help.

on
and
stay on
for about
70
seconds.
If
