If a problem is detected in one of these
systems, this lamp illuminates or flashes.
Although your vehicle will usually be
drivable and not need towing, we recom-
mend you to have the system checked as
soon as possible.
This lamp will also illuminate when the
ignition switch is turned “ON” or the op-
eration mode is put in ON, and goes off
after the engine has started. If it does not
go off after the engine has started, we rec-
ommend you to have the vehicle checked. CAUTION
