GLOSSARY OF WARNING AND INDICATOR LIGHTS
*TPMS NOTE: Low ambient temperature and/or high altitude causes tire pressures to drop
and may turn the TPMS warning light on. If the warning light comes on, check the tire pressure
and fill the tires as soon as possible, preferably before moving the vehicle and warming up
the tires. Initialize system (p. 6). Tire pressure should be checked when the tires are cold.
NOTE: See Owner’s Manual for more details and explanations.

ENGINE COOLANT TEMP LIGHTS
Since this vehicle does not use an engine
coolant temperature gauge, red and blue
engine coolant temperature lights are used to
indicate high and low coolant temperature.
Red Coolant Temp Light
Flashing : Engine is starting to run hot.
Drive slowly to reduce engine load.
On: Engine is overheating. Safely pull
over to the side of the road and turn
the engine off. Refer to the Owner’s
Manual for more information.
Blue Coolant Temp Light On: Engine coolant is cold and no warm
air is available for heater/defroster.
Off: Engine coolant is warm and
warm air is available for heater/
defroster. The light may stay on for a
few minutes after start-up when the
engine is cold, but the vehicle can
be driven with the light on or off.
