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 display when you
start your vehicle.

light changes color to indicate
what mode the system is in:

Driving your vehicle with the warning
lamp on is dangerous. A significant

of personal injury. Cruise Control
