Indication lampsE00501600012Turn-signal indication lamps/
Hazard warning indication
lamps E00501700185
These  indication  lamps  blink  on  and  off
when a turn-signal lamp is operating.
NOTE l If  the  blinking  is  too  fast,  the
cause  may  be  a  blown  lamp  bulb
or a faulty turn-signal connection.
When the hazard warning lamp switch is
pressed,  all  turn-signal  lamps  will  flash
on and off continuously.High-beam indication lamp E00501800115
This  indication  lamp  illuminates  when
the high-beam is used.Front fog lamp indication
lamp* E00501900347
This  indication  lamp  illuminates  while
the front fog lamps are on.Rear fog lamp indication lamp E00502000114
This  indication  lamp  illuminates  while
the rear fog lamp is on.Diesel preheat indication lamp E00502300250
This  indication  lamp  illuminates  when
the ignition switch is placed in the “ON”
position.  As  the  glow  plug  becomes  hot,
the  lamp  goes  out  and  the  engine  can  be
started.CAUTIONl If  the  diesel  preheat  indication
lamp  comes  on  after  the  engine
is started, the engine speed may
not  rise  above  the  idling  speed
because  of  fuel  freezing.  In  this
case,  keep  the  engine  idling  for
about  ten  minutes,  then  turn
off  the  ignition  switch  and  im-
mediately  turn  it  on  again  to
confirm  that  the  diesel  preheat
indication lamp is off.
NOTE
l If the engine is cold, the diesel pre-
heat indication lamp is on for a lon-
ger time.
l When the engine has not been star-
ted  within  about  5  seconds  after
the  diesel  preheat  indication  lamp
went  out,  return  the  ignition
switch  to  the  “LOCK”  position.
Then,  turn  the  switch  to  the  “ON”
position  to  preheat  the  engine
again.
l When the engine is warm, the die-
sel  preheat  indication  lamp  does
not  come  on  even  if  the  ignition
switch is placed in the “ON” posi-
tion.Fuel filter indication lamp E00509900170
This  indication  lamp  illuminates  when
the ignition switch is turned to the “ON”
position  and  goes  off  after  the  engine
has  started.  If  it  lights  up  while  the  en-
gine  is  running,  it  indicates  that  water
has  accumulated  inside  the  fuel  filter;  if
this  happens,  remove  the  water  from  the
fuel filter.
Refer  to  “Removal  of  water  from  the
fuel filter” on page 6-06.
When  the  lamp  goes  out,  you  can  re-
sume driving. If it either does not go out
or  comes  on  from  time  to  time,  we  rec-
ommend you to have the vehicle inspec-
ted.

The turn-signal lamps flash when the lever is oper-
ated  (with  the  ignition  switch  in  the  “ON”  posi-
tion).  At  the  same  time,  the  turn-signal  indication
lamps flash.
1- Turn-signals When  making  a  normal  turn,  use  position
(1). The lever will return automatically when
cornering is completed.
There  are  times  when  the  lever  will  not  re-
turn  after  cornering.  This  occurs  when  the
steering wheel is turned only slightly.
In such cases, return the lever by hand.
2- Lane-change signals When  changing  lanes,  use  position  (2).  It
will  return  to  the  neutral  position  when  re-
leased.
NOTE l If  the  lamp  flashes  unusually  quickly,  the
bulb  in  a  turn-signal  lamp  may  have  burned
out.  We  recommend  you  to  have  the  vehicle
inspected.

the  battery  will  be  discharged,  resulting  in
hard engine starting or no start condition.
l If  the  lamp  flashes  unusually  quickly,  the
bulb  in  a  turn-signal  lamp  may  have  burned
out.
We  recommend  you  to  have  the  vehicle  in-
spected.
