WARNING LAMPS AND
INDICATORS
The following warning lamps and
indicators will alert you to a vehicle
condition that may become serious. Some
lamps will illuminate when you start your
vehicle to make sure they work. If any
lamps remain on after starting your vehicle,
refer to the respective system warning
lamp for further information.
Note:
Some warning indicators appear in
the information display and function the
same as a warning lamp but do not
illuminate when you start your vehicle.
Anti-Lock Brake System If it illuminates when you are
driving, this indicates a
malfunction. Your vehicle will
continue to have normal braking without
Anti-lock brake system function. Have the
system checked by an authorized dealer.
Brake System WARNINGS
Driving your vehicle with the warning
lamp on is dangerous. A significant
decrease in braking performance
may occur. It will take you longer to stop
your vehicle. Have the system checked by
an authorized dealer. Driving extended distances with the
parking brake engaged can cause
brake failure and the risk of personal
injury. It illuminates when you engage
the parking brake and the
ignition is on. If it illuminates when your vehicle is
moving, make sure the parking brake is
disengaged. If the parking brake is
disengaged, this indicates low brake fluid
level or a brake system fault. Have the
system checked by an authorized dealer.
Battery If it illuminates when you are
driving, this indicates a
malfunction. Switch off all
unnecessary electrical equipment. Have
the system checked by an authorized
dealer.
Diesel Warning Lamps (If Equipped)
The following warning lamps are unique
for vehicles equipped with a diesel engine.
Exhaust Emission Fluid If it illuminates when you are
driving, this indicates the diesel
exhaust fluid is low. See
Selective Catalytic Reduction System
(page
119).
If it illuminates, the information display
messages will give an indication as to if the
problem is diesel exhaust fluid level related
or diesel exhaust fluid system malfunction
related. If diesel exhaust fluid is at a
sufficient level, this indicates a system
malfunction. Have your vehicle checked
by an authorized dealer immediately.
Glow Plug It illuminates when you switch
the ignition on, wait until it
extinguishes before starting the
engine.

the water immediately. See
Draining the Fuel Filter Water Trap
(page 218). If it illuminates after draining
the water, this indicates a fuel filter service
is required. Have your vehicle checked by
an authorized dealer immediately.
Direction Indicator Flashes during operation. A
sudden increase in the rate of
flashing warns of a failed
indicator bulb. See
Changing a Bulb
(page 225).
Door Ajar It illuminates when you switch
the ignition on and remains on if
any door or the hood is open.
Engine Coolant Temperature If it illuminates when you are
driving, this indicates a
malfunction. Stop your vehicle
as soon as it is safe to do so and switch the
engine off. Have your vehicle checked by
an authorized dealer. Engine Warning Lamps
Malfunction Indicator Service Required
All Vehicles
If either lamp illuminates when the engine
is running, this indicates a malfunction. The

you are driving, reduce the speed of your
vehicle immediately. If it continues to flash,
avoid heavy acceleration or deceleration.
Have your vehicle checked by an
authorized dealer.
WARNING
Under engine misfire conditions,
excessive exhaust temperatures
could damage the catalytic
converter, the fuel system, interior floor
coverings or other vehicle components,
possibly causing a fire. Have an authorized
dealer service your vehicle immediately. If both lamps illuminate when the engine
is running, stop your vehicle as soon as it
is safe to do so. You may notice a reduction
in vehicle speed caused by reduced engine
power. Switch the ignition off and attempt
to restart the engine. Have your vehicle
checked by an authorized dealer.

start your vehicle, continues to
flash or remains on, this
indicates a malfunction. Have your vehicle
