appear
if the battery is not being charged. Have the
electrical system checked by your dealership at your
earliest convenience.

shows that the electrical charging system is
overcharging (more than 16 volts). To avoid being

10 volts or if the battery has been drained. If this
message appears immediately after starting,
it is possible
that the generator can still recharge the battery. The
battery should recharge and may take a few hours to do
so. Consider using an auxiliary charger to boost the
battery after returning home or to a final destination.
(Be sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions
when using a battery charger.)
If this message appears and stays on while driving or
after starting your vehicle, have it checked immediately
to determine the cause of this problem. To help the
generator recharge the battery quickly, you can reduce
the load
on the electrical system by turning off the
accessories. You can monitor battery voltage
on the
Driver Information Center (DIC) by pressing the
INFO
button. The normal range is 11.5 to 15.5 volts.

caused by a failed sensor. Have your vehicle serviced
immediately at your dealership.
