9. Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL)The Malfunction Indicator
Light (MIL) is part of an on-
board diagnostic system,
called OBD, that monitors engine and
automatic transmission control sys-
tems. The light will illuminate when
the key is in the ON/RUN position,
before engine start. If the bulb does
not come on when turning the key
from OFF to ON/RUN, have the con-
dition checked promptly.
Certain conditions, such as poor fuel
quality, etc., may illuminate the MIL
after engine start. The vehicle should
be serviced if the light stays on
through several of your typical driv-
ing cycles. In most situations, the ve-
hicle will drive normally and will not
require towing.CAUTION!
Prolonged driving with the Mal-
function Indicator Light (MIL) on
could cause damage to the engine
control system. It also could affect
fuel economy and driveability. If
the MIL is flashing, severe catalytic
converter damage and power loss
will soon occur. Immediate service
is required.
WARNING!
A malfunctioning catalytic con-
verter, as referenced above, can
reach higher temperatures than in
normal operating conditions. This
can cause a fire if you drive slowly
or park over flammable substances
such as dry plants, wood, card-
board, etc. This could result in
death or serious injury to the driver,
occupants or others.

a reminder that the Fuel
Filler Door is located on the
left side of the vehicle.
12. Fuel Gauge
The pointer shows the level of fuel in
the fuel tank when the ignition switch
is in the ON/RUN position.
13. Air Bag Warning Light
This light will turn on for
four to eight seconds as a
bulb check when the igni-
tion switch is first turned to
ON/RUN. If the light is either not on
during starting, stays on, or turns on
while driving, have the system in-
spected at an authorized dealer as
soon as possible. Refer to “Occupant
Restraints” in “Things To Know Be-
fore Starting Your Vehicle” for further
information.

Engine Temperature Warning
TelltaleThis telltale warns of an over-
heated engine condition. As
temperatures rise and the gauge ap-
proaches H,this telltale will illumi-
nate and a single chime will sound
after reaching a set threshold. Further
overheating will cause the tempera-
ture gauge to pass H,the telltale will
continuously flash and a continuous
chime will occur until the engine is
allowed to cool.
If the telltale turns on 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 tempera-
ture reading does not return to nor-
mal, turn the engine off immediately
and call for service. Refer to “If Your
Engine Overheats” in “What To Do In
Emergencies” for more information.
Transmission Temperature
Warning Telltale
This telltale indicates that
the transmission fluid tem-
perature is running hot. This may occur with severe usage,
such as trailer towing. If this telltale
turns on, safely pull over and stop the
vehicle. Then, shift the transmission
into PARK and run the engine at idle
or faster until the light turns off.
CAUTION!
Continuous driving with the Trans-
mission Temperature Warning Tell-
tale illuminated will eventually
cause severe transmission damage
or transmission failure.
WARNING!
If the Transmission Temperature
Warning Telltale is illuminated and
you continue operating the vehicle,
in some circumstances you could
cause the fluid to boil over, come in
contact with hot engine or exhaust
components and cause a fire.
Electric Power Steering
Malfunction
This telltale is on when the
Electric Power Steering is
not operating and needs
service.
GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR
(GSI) — If Equipped
The Gear Shift Indicator (GSI) system
is enabled on vehicles with a manual
transmission, or when a vehicle with
an automatic transmission is in
manual shift mode. The GSI provides
the driver with a visual indication
within the EVIC when the recom-
mended gear shift point has been
reached. This indication notifies the
driver that changing gear will allow a
reduction in fuel consumption.
When the shift up indicator (+) is
shown on the display, the GSI is ad-
vising the driver to engage a higher
gear.
