any of the following conditions occur:
• Air Bag Warning Light Fault, (If the Generic Warning
Light starts flashing have your vehicle serviced by an
authorized dealer immediately)
• Engine Oil Pressure Sensor Failure
• Parking Sensor Failure
• External Lamp Failure (position, plate, rear fog, turn,

9. Engine Temperature Warning Light
This light warns of an overheated engine con-
dition. As engine coolant temperatures rise and
the gauge approaches H, this indicator will
illuminate and a single chime will sound after
reaching a set threshold. Further overheating will cause the temperature gauge to pass
H, a continuous chime will
occur until the engine is allowed to cool or the four
minutes duration is expired, whichever comes first.
If the light turns on while driving, safely pull over and
stop the vehicle. If the A/C system is on, turn it off. Also,
shift the transmission into NEUTRAL and idle the ve-
hicle. If the temperature reading does not return to
normal, turn the engine off immediately and call for
service. Refer to “If Your Engine Overheats” in “What To
Do In Emergencies” for further information.

Per Minute (RPM x 1000).

park lights are left on, the high beam indicator light will
remain illuminated and a chime will sound until lights
have been turned to the off position.
12. Glow Plug Light — If Equipped
If this icon blinks, it indicates that the engine
cranking is inhibited in order to prevent possible
engine damage while starting at low temperatures.
13. Engine Oil Level Warning Light
This warning light appears on the panel when the
engine oil level falls below the minimum recom-
mended value. Restore the correct engine oil level
or contact your authorized dealer for service.
14. Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Light
This light informs you of a problem with the
Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) system. The
light will come on when the ignition is first
turned ON and remain on briefly as a bulb
check. If the light does not come on during starting, have
the system checked by an authorized dealer.
If a problem is detected, the light will come on while the
engine is running. Cycle the ignition key when the
vehicle has completely stopped and the gear selector is
placed in the 1st position. The light should turn off.
If the light remains lit with the engine running, your
vehicle will usually be drivable. However, see an autho-
rized dealer for service as soon as possible. If the light is
flashing when the engine is running, immediate service is
required. You may experience reduced performance, an
elevated/rough idle or engine stall and your vehicle may
require towing.

driveability. If the MIL is flashing, severe catalytic
converter damage and power loss will soon occur.
Immediate service is required.
WARNING!
A malfunctioning catalytic converter, as referenced
above, can reach higher temperatures than in normal
operating conditions. This can cause a fire if you
drive slowly or park over flammable substances such
as dry plants, wood, cardboard, etc. This could result
in death or serious injury to the driver, occupants or
others.
22. Rear Fog Light Indicator — If Equipped This indicator will illuminate when the rear fog
lights are on. 23. Odometer/Trip Odometer/Electronic Vehicle Infor-
mation Center (EVIC) Display Area
This display indicates the total distance the vehicle has
been driven.
U.S. Federal regulations require that upon transfer of
vehicle ownership, the seller certify to the purchaser the
correct mileage that the vehicle has been driven. If your
odometer needs to be repaired or serviced, the repair
technician should leave the odometer reading the same
as it was before the repair or service. If s/he cannot do so,
then the odometer must be set at zero, and a sticker must
be placed in the door jamb stating what the mileage was
before the repair or service. It is a good idea for you to
make a record of the odometer reading before the repair/
service, so that you can be sure that it is properly reset, or
that the door jamb sticker is accurate if the odometer
must be reset at zero.
