WARNING LIGHTS AND CHIMES
Air clean warning (if equipped)
Illuminates when the ignition is
turned to the ON position and the
engine is off. The light also
illuminates when the air system is
restricted (dirty, clogged).
Brake reserve system warning (if equipped)
Illuminates to indicate normal
Hydromax booster reserve system
activation when the engine is OFF
and the service brake pedal is
applied, or when the ignition is in
the ON or START position.
This light may also illuminate momentarily if the engine is running and
the driver turns the steering wheel fully in one direction while braking.
If the light remains on while the engine is running, this indicates
inadequate hydraulic booster pressure or reserve pump system failure.
Stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible and seek service immediately.
Charging system
Illuminates when the ignition is
turned to the ON position and the
engine is off. The light also
illuminates when there is no
alternator output, or an over voltage
condition requiring electrical system service.

Parking brake warning (if equipped)
Momentarily illuminates when the
ignition is turned to the ON position
and the engine is off.
If the warning lamp remains
illuminated after engine start up,
this indicates a system failure in the master cylinder of the brake system.
Stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible and seek service immediately.
If equipped with an air brake system, the warning light stays on until the
air pressure builds up to 414 kPa (60 psi). If the air pressure drops
below 414 kPa (60 psi) durning operation, the remaining brake system is
still operational but the stopping distance will be greater.
Parking brake warning
Momentarily illuminates when the
ignition is turned to the ON position
and the engine is off. If the brake
warning lamp does not illuminate at
this time, seek service immediately.
Also illuminates when the parking
brake is engaged.
Engine protect warning (Cummins engine only)
Illuminates when there is a fault in
the electronic subsystem but the
vehicle can be driven, and indicates
one of the following conditions:
•low oil pressure
•low coolant level
•high coolant temperature
•high intake manifold temperature
Refer to the Engine Operator’s Manual.

Stop engine (if equipped)
This light is used in conjunction
with the electronic engine control.
Refer to the Engine Operator’s
Manual for specific information
regarding this feature.
If the engine shuts down, it can be
restarted and operated for 30
seconds at a time or until the
problem is corrected. Refer toEngine shutdown systemin theStarting
chapter.
Drivers of electronically controlled engines should know the
extent of warning engine shutdown system before operating the
vehicle. This information can be obtained from your dealer.
Turn signal
Illuminates when the left or right
turn signal or the hazard lights are
turned on. If one or both of the
indicators stay on continuously or
flash faster, check for a burned-out
turn signal bulb. Refer toExterior bulbsin theMaintenance and care
chapter.
High beams
Illuminates when the high beam
headlamps are turned on.
Anti-lock brake system (ABS)
Momentarily illuminates when the
ignition is turned to the ON position
and the engine is off. If the light
remains on after the vehicle is
started, continues to flash or fails to
illuminate, have the system serviced immediately. With the ABS light on,
STOP
ENGINE

the anti-lock brake system is disabled and normal braking is still effective
unless the brake warning light also remains illuminated.
Wait to start
Indicates the air intake heater is in
operation and special starting
procedures are required. Refer to
theStartingchapter.
If equipped with an air
intake heater, DO NOT use
ether or any other starting fluids.
The use of starting fluids (ether)
in an engine equipped with an air
intake heater could result in
damage and/or personal injury.
Water in fuel (if equipped)
During refueling it is possible for
water-contaminated diesel fuel to be
pumped into your fuel tank. Your
vehicle fuel system is equipped with
a fuel filter/water separator to
remove water from the fuel. The
water in fuel indicator light
illuminates when the fuel
filter/water separator has a
significant quantity of water, or when the ignition key is switched to the
START position. If the light illuminates when the engine is running, stop
the vehicle as soon as safely possible, shut off the engine and drain the
filter bowl. Allowing water to stay in the system could result in extensive
damage to, or failure of, the fuel injection system.
To drain the fuel filter/water separator (refer toMaintenance and Care
section for procedure). Rotate the valve at the bottom of the filter
assembly allowing water to drain from the system. Close the valve upon
completion.
Do not drain water separator while engine is running. Fuel may
ignite if separator is drained while engine is running or vehicle is
moving.

GAUGES
Fuel gauge
Displays approximately how much
fuel is in the fuel tank (when the
key is in the ON position). The fuel
gauge may vary slightly when the
vehicle is in motion. The ignition
should be in the OFF position while
the vehicle is being refueled. When
the gauge first indicates empty,
there is a small amount of reserve
fuel in the tank. When refueling the
vehicle from an empty indication, the amount of fuel that can be added
will be less than the advertised capacity due to the reserve fuel.
Engine coolant temperature gauge
Indicates the temperature of the
engine coolant. At normal operating
temperature, the needle remains
within the normal area (the area
between the“H”and“C”). If it
enters the red section, the engine is
overheating. Stop the vehicle as
soon as safely possible, switch off
the engine immediately and let the
engine cool. Refer toEngine
coolantin theMaintenance and
carechapter.

Engine oil pressure gauge
This shows the engine oil pressure
in the system. Sufficient pressure
exists as long as the needle remains
in the normal range (the area
between the“L”and“H”).
If the gauge indicates low pressure,
stop the vehicle as soon as safely
possible and switch off the engine
immediately. Check the oil level.
Add oil if needed (refer toEngine
oilin theMaintenance and care
chapter). If the oil level is correct, have your vehicle checked at your
dealership or by a qualified technician.
Air pressure gauge and warning buzzer (if equipped)
Indicates the amount of air pressure
in the brake system (green=primary,
red=secondary) in pounds per
square inch. When the pressure is
too low for normal brake operation
(less than 414 kPa [60 psi]) and the
ignition is turned to ON:
•a warning buzzer sounds
•the warning light illuminates
All vehicles have a dual-pointer air
pressure gauge to indicate the pressure in both brake circuits.
Do not drive the vehicle when the low air pressure buzzer is
sounding or the warning light is lit. These warnings indicate
there is not enough air pressure for the brake system to operate
properly.

One time disable
Anytime the safety belt is buckled and then unbuckled during an ignition
ON cycle, Belt Minder will be disabled for that ignition cycle only.
Deactivating/activating the belt minder feature
Read steps1-9thoroughly before proceeding with the
deactivation/activation programming procedure.
The Belt Minder feature can be deactivated/activated by performing the
following procedure:
Before following the procedure, make sure that:
•the parking brake is set
•the gearshift is in P (Park) (automatic transmission) or the neutral
position (manual transmission).
•the ignition switch is in the OFF position
•all vehicle doors are closed
•the driver’s safety belt is unbuckled
•the parklamps/headlamps are in OFF position (If vehicle is equipped
with Autolamps, this will not affect the procedure.)
To reduce the risk of injury, do not deactivate/activate the Belt
Minder feature while driving the vehicle.
1. Turn the ignition switch to the RUN (or ON) position. (DO NOT
START THE ENGINE)
2. Wait until the safety belt warning light turns off. (Approximately 1–2
minutes)
•Steps 3–5 must be completed within 60 seconds or the procedure will
have to be repeated.
3. Buckle then unbuckle the safety belt three times, ending with the
safety belt unbuckled. This can be done before or during Belt Minder
warning activation.
4. Turn on the parklamps/headlamps, turn off the parklamps/headlamps.
5. Buckle then unbuckle the safety belt three times, ending with the
safety belt unbuckled.
•After step 5 the safety belt warning light will be turned on for three
seconds.
