Warning Lights, Gages, and
Indicators
Warning lights and gages can signal that something
is wrong before it becomes serious enough to cause
an expensive repair or replacement. Paying attention
to the warning lights and gages could prevent injury.
Warning lights come on when there may be or is a
problem with one of the vehicle’s functions. Some
warning lights come on briey when the engine is
started to indicate they are working.
Gages can indicate when there may be or is a problem
with one of the vehicle’s functions. Often gages and
warning lights work together to indicate a problem with
the vehicle.
When one of the warning lights comes on and stays on
while driving, or when one of the gages shows there may
be a problem, check the section that explains what to do.
Follow this manual’s advice. Waiting to do repairs can be
costly and even dangerous.

Instrument Panel Cluster
Your instrument panel cluster is designed to let you know at a glance how your vehicle is running. You will know
how fast you are going, how much fuel you are using, and many other things you will need to drive safely and
economically. The indicator warning lights and gages are explained on the following pages.

Passenger Airbag Status Indicator
The vehicle has a passenger sensing system. See
Passenger Sensing System on page 1-85for important
safety information. The instrument panel has a
passenger airbag status indicator.
When the vehicle is
started, the passenger
airbag status indicator will
light the symbol for on
and off for several seconds
as a system check.
If you use remote start to start your vehicle from a
distance, if equipped, you may not see the system
check. Then, after several more seconds, the status
indicator will light either the on or off symbol to let you
know the status of the right front passenger frontal
and seat-mounted side impact airbags (if equipped).
If the on symbol is lit on the passenger airbag status
indicator, it means that the right front passenger frontal
airbag and seat-mounted side impact airbag (if equipped)
are enabled (may inate).If the off symbol is lit on the airbag status indicator, it
means that the passenger sensing system has turned off
the right front passenger frontal airbag and
seat-mounted side impact airbag (if equipped).
If, after several seconds, both status indicator lights
remain on, or if there are no lights at all, there may be a
problem with the lights or the passenger sensing
system. See your dealer/retailer for service.
{CAUTION:
If the airbag readiness light ever comes on and
stays on, it means that something may be wrong
with the airbag system. To help avoid injury to
yourself or others, have the vehicle serviced right
away. SeeAirbag Readiness Light on page 3-33
for more information, including important safety
information.
