WMING LIGHTS
This part describes the warning lights that are on your vehicle. The
pictures will help you locate them.
Warning lights can signal that something
is wrong before it becomes
serious enough to cause an expensive repair or replacement. Paying
attention
to your warning lights could also save you or others from injury.
Warning lights come on when
there may be or is a problem with one of
your vehicle’s functions. As you will see in the details on the next few
pages, some warning lights come on briefly when you start the engine just
to let you know they’re working. If you are familiar with this section, you
should not
be alarmed when this happens.

Speed Sensitive Steering (SSS)
This system varies the amount of steering effort proportionate to your
vehicle speed. Steering
is easier at a lower speed for increased
maneuverability and parking ease. As your vehicle speed increases, the
steering effort is also increased proportionately. At highway speeds the
amount
of steering effort is greatly increased to provide a manual-like
steering feel for maximum control and enhanced vehicle stability.
