If this indicator comes on when the
ignition switch is turned to the ON
(II) position and the parking brake is
rele ased, it means there is a problem
in the high beam headlight’s circuit.
Have your vehicle checked by your
dealer.
Driving
with the power steering
system continuously overheating can
cause system damage.
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 signal indicators
blink. All turn signals on the outside
of the vehicle should f lash.
This indicator normally comes on
when you turn the ignition to the ON
(II) position and goes of f af ter the

other time, there is a problem in the
electric power steering system. If

saf e place and turn of f the engine.
Reset the system by restarting the
engine. The indicator will not turn
of f immediately. If it does not go of f
after driving a short distance, or
comes on again while driving, take
the vehicle to your dealer to have it
checked. With the indicator on, the
EPS may be turned of f , making the
vehicle harder to steer.
If the power steering system
overheats while driving, the assist is
