CAUTION:
Don't keep driving if the oil pressure is low. If
you do, your engine can become so hot that it
catches fire. You or others could be burned.
Check your oil as soon as possible and have your
vehicle serviced.
NOTICE:
Damage to your engine from neglected oil
problems can be costly and is not covered by
your warranty.
Service Vehicle Soon Light
This light will come on
briefly when the ignition is
turned to ON to show that
the bulb is working.
This light indicates problems with your vehicle that are
not related to emissions.
These problems may not be obvious and may affect
vehicle performance and durability. Consult your dealer
for necessary repairs to maintain vehicle performance.

2-67 Low Oil Level Light
Your engine is equipped
with an oil level monitoring
system. When the ignition is
turned to ON, the LOW
OIL LEVEL light will
briefly come on.
If the light does not flash, have it fixed so it will be
ready to warn you if there's a problem.
If the light stays on, stop the vehicle on a level surface
and turn the engine off. Check the oil level using the
engine oil dipstick. (See ªEngine Oilº in the Index.)
The oil level monitoring system only checks oil level
during the brief period between key on and engine
crank. It does not monitor engine oil level when the
engine is running. Additionally, an oil level check is
only performed if the engine has been turned off for an
extended period of time, allowing the oil normally in
circulation to drain back into the oil pan.
Change Oil Light
The CHANGE OIL light
should come on briefly as a
bulb check when you start
the engine. If the light
doesn't come on, have the
vehicle serviced right away.
If the CHANGE OIL light comes on and stays on after
you start the engine, have the oil changed.
For additional information see ªEngine Oil, When to
Changeº in the Index. To reset the GM Oil Life
System,
see ªHow to Reset the Change Oil Lightº in
the Index.

2-68 Security Light
This light will come on
when you turn the key to
ON and will stay on until
the engine starts.
If you're driving and the SECURITY light comes on
and stays on, your Passlock

system is not working
properly. Your vehicle is not protected by Passlock and
you should see your dealer.
Cruise Light
The CRUISE light comes
on whenever you set your
cruise control. See ªCruise
Controlº in the Index.
Low Washer Fluid Light
This light will come on
when your ignition is on to
check the bulb and will
come on when your washer
fluid is low.

2-69 Fuel Gage
United States Canada
Your fuel gage tells you about how much fuel you have
left when the ignition is on.When the indicator nears empty, you still have a little
fuel left, but you should get more soon.
Here are four things that some owners ask about. All
these things are normal and do not indicate a problem
with the fuel gage:

At the gas station, the gas pump shuts off before the
gage reads full.

It takes more (or less) fuel to fill up than the gage
reads. For example, the gage reads half full, but it
takes more (or less) than half the fuel tank's capacity
to fill it.

The gage pointer may move while cornering, braking
or speeding up.

The gage may not indicate empty when the ignition
is turned off.

2-70 Low Fuel Light
United States CanadaIf your fuel is low, this warning light near the fuel gage
will come on.
It will also come on for a few seconds when you first
turn on the ignition as a check to show you it's working.
If it doesn't come on then, have it fixed right away.

window. Press the button to
turn the defogger on. It will
turn itself off after about
15 minutes (automatic
control) or 10 minutes
(manual control).
If you turn it on again, the defogger will only run for
about seven and one
-half minutes (automatic control) or
five minutes (manual control) before turning off. You
