{CAUTION:

readiness light stays on after you start your

The air bag readiness light should ¯ash for a few
seconds when you turn the ignition key to RUN. If the

Battery Warning Light
When you turn the key to
RUN, this light will come
on brie¯y, to show the
battery charging system is
working.
When the light goes off and stays off, the charging
system is working.
If the light stays on, a chime will sound indicating you
need service, and you should take your vehicle to
the dealer at once. To save your battery until you get
there, turn off all accessories and turn off your climate
control system.
Brake System Warning Light
Your vehicle's hydraulic brake system is divided into two
parts. If one part isn't working, the other part can still
work and stop you. For good braking, though, you need
both parts working well.
If the warning light comes on, there is a brake problem.
Have your brake system inspected right away.
