center console cupholder.
Caution
If papers, pins, or other flammable
items are put in the ashtray, hot
cigarettes or other smoking
materials could ignite them and
possibly damage the vehicle. Never
put flammable items in the ashtray.

Warning Lights, Gauges,
and Indicators
Warning lights and gauges can signal
that something is wrong before it
becomes serious enough to cause an
expensive repair or replacement.
Paying attention to the warning lights
and gauges could prevent injury. Some warning lights come on briefly
when the engine is started to indicate
they are working. When one of the
warning lights comes on and stays on
while driving, or when one of the
gauges shows there may be a problem,
check the section that explains what
to do. Waiting to do repairs can be
costly and even dangerous.

{Warning
If the airbag readiness light stays
on after the vehicle is started or
comes on while driving, it means
the airbag system might not be
working properly. The airbags in the
vehicle might not inflate in a crash,
or they could even inflate without a
crash. To help avoid injury, have
the vehicle serviced right away.
If there is a problem with the airbag
system, a Driver Information Center
(DIC) message may also come on.
Passenger Airbag Status
Indicator
The vehicle has a passenger sensing
system. See Passenger Sensing System
0 87 for important safety information.
The overhead console has a passenger
airbag status indicator.
When the vehicle is started, the
passenger airbag status indicator will
light ON and OFF for several seconds
as a system check. Then, after several
more seconds, the status indicator will
light either ON or OFF to let you know
the status of the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag and knee
airbag.
If the word ON is lit on the passenger
airbag status indicator, it means that
the front outboard passenger frontal
airbag and knee airbag are allowed to
inflate.
If the word OFF is lit on the passenger
airbag status indicator, it means that
the passenger sensing system has
turned off the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag and knee
airbag. If, after several seconds, both status
indicator lights remain on, or if there
are no lights at all, there may be a
problem with the lights or the
passenger sensing system. See your
dealer for service.{Warning
If the airbag readiness light ever
comes on and stays on, it means
that something may be wrong with
the airbag system. To help avoid
injury to yourself or others, have
the vehicle serviced right away. See
Airbag Readiness Light
0131 for
more information, including
important safety information.
