or turn the ignition to OFF/LOCK position and
turn on the headlights.
Turn Signals
Move the multifunction lever up or down and the arrows
on each side of the instrument cluster flash to show
proper operation of the front and rear turn signal lights.
NOTE:If either light remains on and does not flash, or
there is a very fast flash rate, check for a defective outside
light bulb. If an indicator fails to light when the lever is
moved, it would suggest that the indicator bulb is
defective.
Lane Change Assist
Tap the lever up or down once, without moving beyond
the detent, and the turn signal (right or left) will flash five
times then automatically turn off.

When this feature is selected the driver can choose to

position, and pull the multifunction lever toward the
steering wheel, within two minutes. Each time the lever

signal when the turn signal lever is operated.

8. Generic Warning LightThe Generic Warning Light will illuminate if
any of the following conditions occur:
• Air Bag Warning Light Fault, (If the Generic Warning
Light starts flashing have your vehicle serviced by an
authorized dealer immediately)
• Engine Oil Pressure Sensor Failure
• Parking Sensor Failure
• External Lamp Failure (position, plate, rear fog, turn,
stop, drl, stop start failure)
9. Engine Temperature Warning Light
This light warns of an overheated engine con-
dition. As engine coolant temperatures rise and
the gauge approaches H, this indicator will
illuminate and a single chime will sound after
reaching a set threshold. Further overheating will cause the temperature gauge to pass
H, a continuous chime will
occur until the engine is allowed to cool or the four
minutes duration is expired, whichever comes first.
If the light 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 ve-
hicle. If the temperature reading does not return to
normal, turn the engine off immediately and call for
service. Refer to “If Your Engine Overheats” in “What To
Do In Emergencies” for further information.
10. Tachometer
The tachometer indicates engine speed in Revolutions
Per Minute (RPM x 1000).

are on. Pull the multifunction lever toward you

to switch the headlights to high beam. Pull the lever a
second time to switch the headlights back to low beam.
NOTE:If the driver’s door is open, and the headlights or
park lights are left on, the high beam indicator light will
remain illuminated and a chime will sound until lights
have been turned to the off position.
12. Glow Plug Light — If Equipped
If this icon blinks, it indicates that the engine
cranking is inhibited in order to prevent possible
engine damage while starting at low temperatures.
13. Engine Oil Level Warning Light
This warning light appears on the panel when the
engine oil level falls below the minimum recom-
mended value. Restore the correct engine oil level
or contact your authorized dealer for service.
14. Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Light
This light informs you of a problem with the
Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) system. The
light will come on when the ignition is first
turned ON and remain on briefly as a bulb
check. If the light does not come on during starting, have
the system checked by an authorized dealer.
If a problem is detected, the light will come on while the
engine is running. Cycle the ignition key when the
vehicle has completely stopped and the gear selector is
placed in the 1st position. The light should turn off.
If the light remains lit with the engine running, your
vehicle will usually be drivable. However, see an autho-
rized dealer for service as soon as possible. If the light is
flashing when the engine is running, immediate service is
required. You may experience reduced performance, an
elevated/rough idle or engine stall and your vehicle may
require towing.
