Automatic Transmission (AT)
position indicator light
When the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position, the indicator shows the automatic
selector position.
In the manual shift mode, when the transmis-
sion does not shift to the selected gear due to a
transmission protection mode, the AT position
indicator light will blink and a chime will sound.
See “AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION” in the “5.
Starting and driving” section for further details.

ON indicator light (green; if
so equipped)
The light comes on in green when the Blind
Spot Intervention (BSI) system is turned on. The
light turns off when the system is turned off.
NOTE:
This light is common with the blind spot warning
light (orange). (See “Blind Spot Warning
(BSW)/Blind Spot Intervention (BSI) system
warning light” earlier in this section).
For more details, see “BLIND SPOT WARNING
(BSW) SYSTEM/BLIND SPOT INTERVENTION™ (BSI)
SYSTEM” in the “5. Starting and driving” section.
ECO drive indicator
light
When the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position, the light will come on in orange, turn
green, and then turn off.
When the drive mode select switch is turned to
the ECO mode, the ECO drive indicator light will
illuminate or change its color depending on the

while the system is turned on (without the
warning chime sound), this light indicates that
the system control is temporarily unavailable.
When the IBA off indicator light illuminates with
the warning chime sound while the IBA system
is turned on, this light indicates that the system
may not be functioning properly. Park the ve-
hicle in a safe place. Check to see if the laser
sensor is clean. Turn the engine off, then restart
the engine.

paired as necessary could lead to poor drive-
ability, reduced fuel economy, and possible
damage to the emission control system.
Security indicator light
The light blinks when the ignition switch is in
the ACC, OFF or LOCK position. This function
indicates the security system equipped on the
vehicle is operational.
If the security system is malfunctioning, this
light will remain on while the ignition switch is
in the ON position. For additional information,
see “SECURITY SYSTEMS” later in this section.

cates that the vehicle dynamic control system
and traction control system are not operating.
AUDIBLE REMINDERS
Key reminder chime
A chime will sound if the driver side door is
opened while the ignition switch is pushed to the
ACC position. Make sure the ignition switch is
pushed to the OFF position, and take the Intelli-
gent Key with you when leaving the vehicle.

the vehicle is driven at more than 4 MPH (7
km/h) with the parking brake applied. Stop the
vehicle and release the parking brake.
Brake pad wear warning
The disc brake pads have audible wear warn-
ings. When a brake pad requires replacement, it
will make a high pitched scraping sound when
the vehicle is in motion. This scraping sound
will first occur only when the brake pedal is
depressed. After more wear of the brake pad,
the sound will always be heard even if the brake
pedal is not depressed. Have the brakes
checked as soon as possible if the warning
sound is heard.
