The instrument panel has many
indicators to give you important
info rmation about your vehicl e. If
it stays on after you have fully
released the parking brake while
the engine is running, or if it
comes on while driving, there
could be a problem with the brake
system. For more information, see
page .
This indicator reminds you and your
passengers to fasten your seat belts.
If your front passenger does not
fasten their seat belt, the indicator
comes on about 6 seconds after the
ignition switch is turned to the ON
(II) position. If
either of you do not fasten your
seat belt while driving, the beeper
will sound and the indicator will flash
again at regular intervals. For more
inf ormation, see page .
This indicator has two f unctions:

speed, you may feel slightly harder
steering due to overhe ating of the
steering gear box.
This
indicator normally comes on
when you turn the ignition to the ON
(II) position and goes off after the
engine starts. If it comes on at any
other time, there is a problem in the
electric power steering system. If
this happens, stop the vehicle in a
safe place and turn off the engine.
Reset the system by restarting the
engine. The indicator will not turn
off immediately. If it does not go off
after driving a short distance, or

the vehicle to your dealer to have it
checked. With the indicator on, the
EPS may be turn ed off, making the
vehicle harder to steer. This
indicator normally comes on for
a few seconds when you turn the
ignition switch to the ON (II)
position. When the brake system

Creep Aid System or Brake Assist
(the normal brake operates properly).
Have your vehicle checked by your
dealer.
