This indicator normally comes on for
a few seconds when you turn the
ignition switch to the ON (II)

braking ability but no anti -lock
brakes. For more information, see
page .

Driving with the parking brake not
fully released can damage the
brakes and tires.
If it stays on after you have fully

tensioners, driver’s seat position
sensor, or the front passenger’s seat
weight sensors. For more

The
appropriate tire indicator will
come on along with the low tire

If it comes on while driving, it
indicates that one or more of your
vehicl e’s tires are extremely low on
pressure.
If this happens, pull to the side of the

has lost the pressure on the tire
pressure monitor, and determine the
cause. If it is because of a f lat tire,
replace the flat tire with the compact
spare (see page ), and have the
f lat tire repaired as soon as possible.
If two or more tires are underinf lated,
call a prof essional towing service
(see page ). Ref er to page f or more inf ormation. 266

indicator comes on
when you push the brake pedal with
the ignition switch in the ON (II)
position.
The
left or right turn signal indicator
blinks when you signal a lane change
or turn. If an indicator does not blink
or blinks rapidly, it usually means

burned out (see pages and ).
Replace the bulb as soon as possible,
since oth er drivers cannot see that
you are signaling. The
appropriate indicator comes on
in this display if the tailgate or any
door is not closed tightly.
All of the indicato rs in the monitor
display come on for a few seconds
when you turn the ignition switch to
the ON (II) position.
When
you press the hazard warning
button, both turn signal indicato rs
and all turn signals on the outside of
the vehicle flash. A
burned out brake light is a hazard
when drivers behind you cannot tell
you are braking. Replace the bulb as
soon as possible (see page ).
