Handling the Unexpected
Indicator, Coming On/Blinking If the Brake System Indicator Comes On If the EPS Indicator Comes On
If the Brake System Indicator Comes On
■Reasons for the Indicator to Come On
The brake fluid is low.

•
There is a malfunction in the brake system.

•
What to Do When the Indicator Comes On While Driving
■
Press the brake pedal lightly to check pedal pressure.
If normal, check the brake fluid level the next time you stop.

•
If abnormal, take immediate action. If necessary, downshift the

•
transmission to slow the vehicle using engine braking.
If the EPS Indicator Comes On
■Reasons for the Indicator to Come On
Comes on when there is a problem with EPS.

•
If you depress the accelerator pedal repeatedly to increase the

•
engine speed while the engine is idling, the indicator comes on, and sometimes the steering wheel becomes harder to operate.
What to Do When the Indicator Comes On
■
Stop the vehicle in a safe place and restart the engine.

• If the indicator comes on and stays on, immediately have your vehicle inspected by a dealer.
U.S.
Canada If the Brake System Indicator Comes On
Have your vehicle repaired immediately. It is dangerous to drive with low brake luid. If there is no resistance from the brake pedal, stop immediately in a safe place. If necessary downshift the gears. If the brake system indicator and ABS indicator come on simultaneously, the brake distribution system is not working. This can result in vehicle instability under sudden braking. Have your vehicle inspected by a dealer immediately.
If the EPS Indicator Comes On
NOTICE If the steering wheel is operated repeatedly or at an extremely low speed, or you hold the steering wheel on the full left or right position for a while, the system heats up. The system goes into a protective mode, and limits its performance. The steering wheel becomes harder and harder to operate. Once the system cools down, EPS is restored. Repeated operation under these conditions can eventually result in a damage to the system.

Emissions Testing
Testing of Readiness Codes
Testing of Readiness Codes
The readiness codes are erased when the 12 volt battery is disconnected, and set again only after several days of driving under a variety of conditions. If a testing facility determines that the readiness codes are not set, you may be requested to return at a later date to complete the test.
If the testing facility determines the readiness co des
are still not set, see a dealer.
Your vehicle uses “readiness codes,” as part of it’s onboard self diagnostic system. Some States refer to these codes during testing to see if your vehicle’s emissions components are working properly. The codes may not be read if you go through the testing just after the battery has gone dead or been disconnected. To check if they are set, turn the ignition switch to ON
II, without starting the
engine. The malfunction indicator lamp will come on for several seconds. If it then goes off, the readiness codes are set. If it blinks five times, the readiness codes are not set. If you are required to have your vehicle tested before the readiness codes are ready, prepare the vehicle for retesting by doing the following:
Fill the gas tank to approximately 3/4 full.
1.
Park the vehicle and leave the engine off for 6 hours or more.
2.
Make sure the ambient temperature is between 40 °F and 95 °F (4 °C and 35
3.
°C).Start the engine without touching the accelerator pedal, and let it idle for 20
4.
seconds.Keep the vehicle in
5.
P (automatic transmission) or N (manual transmission).
Increase the engine speed to 2,000 rpm, and hold it there for about 3 minutes. Let the engine idle with your foot off the accelerator for 20 seconds.
