If any light does not come on, or operates in away
other than described it may indicate aburned-out
bulb and/or asystem malfunction. Have the system
checked, and if necessary repaired, by an approved
dealer or qualified workshop promptly.
Models with colour display:
Some indicators and warnings are also displayed on
the vehicle information display between the speedo-
meter and tachometer. (See “Indicators for

WARNING LIGHTS Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)
warning light (where fitted)
When the ignition switch is in the ON position, the
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning light illumi- nates and then turns off. This indicates the ABS is
operational. If the ABS warning light illuminates while the engine
is running, or while driving, it may indicate the ABS
is not functioning properly. Have the system
checked by an approved dealer or qualified work-
shop promptly.
If an ABS malfunction occurs, the anti-lock function
is turned off. The brake system then operates nor-
mally, but without anti-lock assistance. (See “Anti-
lock Braking System (ABS)” in the “5. Starting and
driving” section.)
While the differential lock (where fitted) is en-
gaged, the ABS warning light illuminates. This
indicates that the anti-lock function is not fully
operating. (See “Rear differential locking system
(where fitted)” in the “5. Starting and driving” sec-
tion for the rear differential lock function.) Automatic Transmission (AT)
check warning light (AT model)
When the ignition switch is in the ON position, the
Automatic Transmission (AT) check warning light
illuminates and then turns off. This indicates that the
AT is operational.
If the AT check warning light illuminates while the
engine is running, or while driving, it may indicate
that the AT is not functioning properly and may need
servicing. Have the system checked, and if neces-
sary repaired, by an approved dealer or qualified
workshop promptly. Automatic Transmission (AT) oil
temperature warning light (AT
model)
This light illuminates when the Automatic Transmis-
sion (AT) oil temperature is too high. If the light illu-
minates while driving, reduce the vehicle speed as
soon as safely possible until the light turns off.
CAUTION
Continued vehicle operation when the AT oil tem-
perature warning light is on may damage the AT. Automatic Transmission (AT)
park warning light (AT model)
This light indicates that the Automatic Transmission
(AT) parking function is not engaged. If the transfer
control is not secured in any driving position while
the AT shift lever is in the P(Park) position, the

WARNING
If the 4WD mode indicator (see “Four-Wheel Drive
(4WD) warning light (4WD model)” later in this
section) is OFF or the ATP warning light is ON,
this indicates that the automatic transmission P
(Park) position will not function and could result
in the vehicle moving unexpectedly, causing seri-
ous personal injury or property damage. Always
set the parking brake. Brake warning light
WARNING
• If the brake fluid level is below the minimum
mark on the brake fluid reservoir, do not drive
the vehicle until the brake system has been
checked by an approved dealer or qualified
workshop.
• Even if you judge it to be safe, have your ve-
hicle towed because driving it could be dan-
gerous.
• Depressing the brake pedal without the en-
gine running and/or with
alow brake fluid
level could increase the stopping distance and
require greater pedal travel distance and ef-
fort.
The brake warning light indicates the parking brake
system operation, alow brake fluid level of the brake
system and an Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) mal-
function. Parking brake warning indicator:
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON posi-
tion, the brake warning light illuminates. When the
engine is started and the parking brake is released,
the brake warning light turns off.
If the parking brake is not fully released, the brake
warning light remains on. Be sure that the brake
warning light has turned off before driving. (See
“Parking brake” in the “3. Pre-driving checks and
adjustments” section.)
Low brake fluid warning indicator:
If the brake warning light illuminates while the en-
gine is running, or while driving, and the parking
brake is released, it may indicate the brake fluid
level is low.
When the brake warning light illuminates while driv-
ing, stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible.
Stop the engine and check the brake fluid level. If
the brake fluid level is at the minimum mark, add
brake fluid as necessary. (See “Brake fluid” in the
“8. Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section.)
If the brake fluid level is sufficient, have the brake
system checked by an approved dealer or qualified
workshop promptly.
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning
indicator (where fitted):
When the parking brake is released and the brake
fluid level is sufficient, if both the brake warning light
and the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning
light illuminate, it may indicate the ABS is not func-
tioning properly. Have the brake system checked, and if necessary repaired, by an approved dealer or
qualified workshop promptly. (See “Brake system”
in the “5. Starting and driving” section.) Charge warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON position, the
charge warning light illuminates. After starting the
engine, the charge warning light turns off. This indi-
cates that the charging system is operational.
If the charge warning light illuminates while the en-
gine is running, or while driving, it may indicate that
the charging system is not functioning properly and
may need servicing.
When the charge warning light illuminates while driv-
ing, stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible.
Stop the engine and check the alternator belt. If the
alternator belt is loose, broken or missing, contact
an approved dealer or qualified workshop promptly.
(See “Drive belt” in the “8. Maintenance and
do-it-yourself” section.)
If the alternator belt appears to be functioning cor-
rectly but the charge warning light remains illumi-
nated, have the charging system checked by an
approved dealer or qualified workshop promptly.
CAUTION
Do not continue driving if the alternator belt is
loose, broken or missing.

(where fitted)
The low washer fluid warning light illuminates when
the washer fluid in the reservoir is at alow level. Add
washer fluid as necessary. (See “Window washer
fluid” in the “8. Maintenance and do-it-yourself” sec-
tion.) Malfunction warning light (red)
(where fitted)
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON posi-
tion, the malfunction warning light illuminates in red.
This means that the system is operational. After
starting the engine, the warning light turns off.
For the orange Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL),
see “Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)” later in this
section for details.
If the malfunction warning light (red) illuminates con-
tinuously while the engine is running, it may indicate
an engine control system malfunction. Have your
vehicle inspected by an approved dealer or qualified
workshop. You do not need to have your vehicle
towed to the dealer.
CAUTION
Continuing vehicle operation without proper ser-
vicing of the engine control system could lead to
poor driveability, reduced fuel economy, and
damage to the engine control system, which may
affect the vehicle’s warranty coverage. Master warning light (where
