This indicator normally comes on for
a few seconds when you turn the
ignition switch to the ON (II)
position. Itcomesonasareminderthatyou
have
turned off the vehicle
stability assist (VSA) system.
It flashes when VSA is active (see
page ).
Ifitcomesonandstaysonatany
other
time, or it does not come on
wh en you turn the ignition switch to
the ON (II) position, there is a
problem with the VSA system. You
will also see a ‘‘CHECK VSA
SYSTEM’’ message on the multi-
info rmation display (see page ).
Take your vehicle to a dealer to have
it checked. Without VSA, your
vehicle still has normal driving ability,
but will not have VSA traction and
stability enhancement. For more
info rmation, see page .
This indicator may also come on if
there is a problem with the trailer
stability assist function (see page
). This
indicator has four functions.
It flashes when trailer stability
assist is activating (see page ).
It comes on along with the VSA
system indicator if there is a
problem with the VSA system.
You will also see a ‘‘CHECK VSA
SYSTEM’’ message and a
‘‘CHECK TRAILER STABILITY
ASSIST’’ message on the multi-
info rmation display (see page ).
This indicator normally comes on for
a few seconds when you turn the
ignition switch to the ON (II) position.
For more information, see
page .
The left or right turn signal indicator
blinks when you signal a lane change
or turn. If the indicator does not
blink or blinks rapidly, it usually
means one of the turn signal bulbs is
burned out (see page ). Replace
the bulb as soon as possible, since
other drivers cannot see that you are
signaling.
When you press the hazard warning
button, both turn signals blink. All
turn signals on the outside of the
vehicle should f lash.
