could lead to poor driveability, re-
duced fuel economy, and possible
damage to the emission control sys-
tem.

The light blinks when the ignition switch
is in the ACC, OFF and LOCK position. This
function indicates the security system
equipped on the vehicle is operational.

(VDC) off indicator light illuminates and
then turns off.
The light comes on when the VDC off
switch is pushed to OFF. This indicates
that the VDC system is not operating.
When the 4L position is selected with the
