4Service Engine Soon
This light will illuminate briefly when you start your vehicle to ensure
that the engine warning system is functional. If it comes on after the
engine is started, one of your engine’s emission control systems
may be malfunctioning. Or, it may stay on because your vehicle is out
of fuel, existing fuel quality is poor, or the fuel cap hasn’t been
properly tightened. If you have added high quality fuel or tightened
the fuel cap and the light continues to stay on, remember that it can
take three driving cycles for the light to turn off. (A driving cycle
consists of a cold engine startup followed by mixed city/highway
driving.) No additional vehicle service would be required.
