Engine Malfunction
•What Does It Mean
The light is an integral part of the diagnostic
system of the vehicle, called OBD II. This
system monitors the performance of the emissions,
engine, and automatic transmission control systems.
The light comes on briefly (as a bulb check) when the
ignition is turned to the MAR/RUN. If the light does
not illuminate, it means that there is a failure.
In some conditions, such as the poor quality of the fuel,
the light may come on only after starting the engine.
•What To Do
Under these conditions, you can continue driving.
Avoid heavy efforts to the engine or high speeds. The
prolonged use of the car with the light illuminated
can cause damage to the engine.
Please contact your authorized dealer as soon as
possible.

Safety Checks You Should Make Inside The
Vehicle
Seat Belts
Inspect the seat belt system periodically, checking for
cuts, frays, and loose parts. Damaged parts must be
replaced immediately. Do not disassemble or modify the
system.
Front seat belt assemblies must be replaced after a
collision. Rear seat belt assemblies must be replaced after
a collision if they have been damaged (i.e., bent retractor,
torn webbing, etc.). If there is any question regarding seat
belt or retractor condition, replace the seat belt.
Air Bag Warning Light
The light should come on and remain on for
four to eight seconds as a bulb check when the
ignition switch is first turned ON. If the light is
not lit during starting, see your authorized dealer. If the
light stays on, flickers, or comes on while driving, have
the system checked by an authorized dealer.
Defroster
Check operation by selecting the defrost mode and place
the blower control on high speed. You should be able to
feel the air directed against the windshield. See your
authorized dealer for service if your defroster is inoper-
able.
Floor Mat Safety Information
Always use floor mats designed to fit the footwell of your
vehicle. Use only floor mats that leave the pedal area
unobstructed and that are firmly secured so that they
cannot slip out of position and interfere with the pedals
or impair safe operation of your vehicle in other ways.

BULB REPLACEMENT
General Information
•Before you replace a bulb check the contacts to be sure
they are not oxidized.
•Replace the bulbs with the same type and wattage.
•After replacing a light bulb always check the correct
orientation.
•Before replacing a bulb that is not functioning check
that the fuse is intact.
NOTE:Lens fogging can occur under certain atmo-
spheric conditions. This will usually clear as atmospheric
conditions change to allow the condensation to change
back into a vapor. Turning the lamps on will usually
accelerate the clearing process.
