information. The instrument panel
has a passenger airbag status
indicator.
When the vehicle is started, the
passenger airbag status indicator
will light the words ON and OFF, for
several seconds as a system check.
Then, after several more seconds,
the status indicator will light either
the word ON or the word OFF, to let
you know the status of the front
outboard passenger frontal airbag.
If the word ON is lit on the
passenger airbag status indicator, it
means that the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag is allowed
to inflate.If the word OFF is lit on the airbag
status indicator, it means that the
passenger sensing system has
turned off the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag.
If, after several seconds, both status
indicator lights remain on, or if there
are no lights at all, there may be a
problem with the lights or the
passenger sensing system. See
your dealer for service.
{Warning
If the airbag readiness light ever
comes on and stays on, it means
that something may be wrong
with the airbag system. To help
avoid injury to yourself or others,
have the vehicle serviced right
away. See
Airbag Readiness
Light on page 5-12 for more
information, including important
safety information.
Charging System Light
The charging system light comes on
briefly when the ignition is turned
on, but the engine is not running, as
a check to show the light is working.
The light turns off when the engine
is started. If it does not, have the
vehicle serviced by your dealer.
If the light stays on, or comes on
while driving, there could be a
problem with the electrical charging
system. Have it checked by your
dealer. Driving while this light is on
could drain the battery.
If a short distance must be driven
with the light on, be sure to turn off
all accessories, such as the radio
and air conditioner.

When the ignition is on, the brake
system warning light may also come
on when the parking brake is set.
The light stays on if the parking
brake does not fully release. If it
stays on after the parking brake is
fully released, there is a brake
problem. Have the brake system
inspected immediately.
{Warning
The brake system might not be
working properly if the brake
system warning light is on.
Driving with the brake system
warning light on can lead to a
crash. If the light is still on after
the vehicle has been pulled off
the road and carefully stopped,
have the vehicle towed for
service.
If the light comes on while driving, a
chime sounds. Pull off the road and
stop. The pedal might be harder to
push or go closer to the floor.
It might also take longer to stop. If the light is still on, have the
vehicle towed for service. See
Towing the Vehicle on page 10-70.
Electric Parking Brake
Light
The parking brake status light
comes on when the Electric Parking
Brake (EPB) is applied. If the light
continues flashing after the EPB is
released, or while driving, there is a
problem with the EPB system.
A SERVICE PARKING BRAKE
message may also display in the
Driver Information Center (DIC).
See
Brake System Messages on
page 5-28. The brake system warning light may
also come on when the EPB is set.
Both lights will stay on until the EPB
is released.
If the light does not come on,
or remains flashing, see your dealer.The parking brake warning light
should come on briefly when the
ignition is placed in ON/RUN. If it
does not come on then, have it fixed
so it will be ready to warn if there is
a problem.
If this light comes on, there is a
problem with a system on the
vehicle that is causing the EPB
system to work at a reduced level.
The vehicle can still be driven, but
should be taken to a dealer as soon
as possible. See
Parking Brake on
page 9-26.

Antilock Brake System
(ABS) Warning Light
This light should come on briefly
when the vehicle is in ON/RUN. If it
does not come on, have the vehicle
serviced by your dealer.
If the ABS warning light stays on
longer than a few seconds after the
vehicle is in ON/RUN, or comes on
and stays on while driving, try
resetting the system. To reset the
system:
1. While driving, pull over when it issafe to do so.
2. Place the vehicle in P (Park).
3. Turn the vehicle off.
4. Restart the vehicle. If the ABS warning light remains on
after resetting the system or comes
on again while driving, the vehicle
needs service. If the ABS warning
light is on, but the regular brake
system warning light is not on, the
antilock brakes are not working
properly, but the regular brakes are
still functioning. Have the vehicle
serviced right away. If both brake
lights are on, the vehicle does not
have antilock brakes, and there is a
problem with the regular brakes as
well. Have the vehicle towed for
service. See
Towing the Vehicle on
page 10-70.
All-Wheel-Drive Light
For vehicles with the
All-Wheel-Drive light, it comes on
briefly when the ignition is turned to
ON/RUN.

serviced by your dealer. If the
system is working normally, the
indicator light then goes off.
This light comes on when there is a
malfunction in the All-Wheel-Drive
(AWD) system.
This light flashes when the AWD
system is temporarily disabled.
For more information see All-Wheel
Drive on page 9-24.
