INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WARNING LIGHTS
- Generic Warning Light
• The Generic Warning Light will illuminate if any of the following conditions occur:
Oil Change Request, Engine Oil Pressure Sensor Failure, After Run Cooling
Pump, External Light Failure, Fuel Cut-Off Intervention, Fuel Cut-Off Not Available,
Parking Sensor Failure.
- Power Steering System Warning
• If the “POWER STEERING SYSTEM OVER TEMP” message and icon are dis-
played in the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) display, it indicates that
extreme steering maneuvers have occurred, which caused an over temperature
condition in the power steering system. You will lose power steering assistance
momentarily until the over temperature condition no longer exists. Once driving
conditions are safe, pull over and let the vehicle idle. After approximately five min-
utes, the system will cool and return to normal operation.
- Engine Temperature Warning Light
• This light warns of an overheated engine condition.
• If the light turns on or flashes continuously while driving, safely pull over and stop
the vehicle. If the A/C system is on, turn it off. Also, shift the transmission into
NEUTRAL and idle the vehicle. If the temperature reading does not return to nor-
mal, turn the engine off immediately.
• We recommend that you do not operate the vehicle or engine damage will occur.
Have the vehicle serviced immediately.
WARNING!
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous. You or others could be badly burned
by steam or boiling coolant. You may want to call an authorized studio for service
if your vehicle overheats.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
44

- Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Light
•This light informs you of a problem with the Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) system.
• If a problem is detected, the light will come on while the engine is running. Cycle
the ignition when the vehicle has completely stopped; the light should turn off.
• If the light remains lit with the engine running, your vehicle will usually be drivable;
however, see an authorized service center immediately. If the light is flashing
when the engine is running, immediate service is required and you may experi-
ence reduced performance, an elevated/rough idle or engine stall and your ve-
hicle may require towing.
- Electronic Stability Control (ESC) OFF Indicator Light
• This light indicates the ESC system has been turned off by the driver.
- Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Activation / Malfunction
Indicator Light
• The “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” in the instrument cluster will
come on for four seconds when the ignition switch is turned to the ON/RUN posi-
tion. If the “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” comes on continuously
with the engine running, a malfunction has been detected in the ESC system.
If this light remains on, see your authorized studio as soon as possible to have
the problem diagnosed and corrected.
NOTE:
• The “ESC Off Indicator Light” and the “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator
Light” come on momentarily each time the ignition switch is turned to ON/RUN.
• Each time the ignition is turned to ON/RUN, the ESC system will be ON even if it
was turned off previously.
• ESC Activation/Malfunction Light can blink during a ESC or TC intervention.
TTC (Tire Transfer Control)
• The TTC system uses the brakes to prevent unwanted wheelspin during corner-
ing, to maximize acceleration and minimize understeering during aggressive driv-
ing. This feature is active in all modes. While TTC is active, the “ESC” lamp in the
instrument cluster may flash.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES

• After the event occurs, when the system is active, the message "Fuel Cutoff See
Handbook" is displayed.
• Carefully check the vehicle for fuel leaks in the engine compartment and on the
ground near the engine compartment and fuel tank before resetting the system
and starting the engine.
NOTE:
In order to start the engine and move the vehicle to a safe location after an impact, the
System Reset Procedure must be completed.
System Reset Procedure
• After an impact causing air bag deployment, the left and right turn signal lights,
located in the instrument panel cluster, will both be blinking until the ignition is
turned off.
• In order to move your vehicle to the side of the road you must follow the system
reset procedure.
