the light remains on with the vehicle running,
your vehicle will usually be drivable; however,
see an authorized dealer for service as soon
as possible.
NOTE:
This light may turn on if the accelerator and
brake pedals are pressed at the same time.
If the light continues to flash when the ve-
hicle is running, immediate service is re-
quired and you may experience reduced per-
formance, an elevated/rough idle, or engine
stall and your vehicle may require towing. The
light will come on when the ignition is placed
in the ON/RUN or ACC/ON/RUN position 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.
— Engine Coolant Temperature Warn-
ing Light
This warning light warns of an overheated
engine condition. If the engine coolant tem-
perature is too high, this indicator will illumi-
nate and a single chime will sound. If thetemperature reaches the upper limit, a con-
tinuous chime will sound for four minutes or
until the engine is able to cool: 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 vehicle. If the
temperature reading does not return to nor-
mal, turn the engine off immediately and call
for service.
Refer to “If Your Engine Overheats” in “In
Case Of Emergency” for further information.
— Hood Open Warning Light
This indicator will illuminate when the hood
is ajar/open and not fully closed.
NOTE:
If the vehicle is moving, there will also be a
single chime.
— Liftgate Open Warning Light
This warning light will illuminate when the
liftgate is open.NOTE:
If the vehicle is moving, there will also be a
single chime.
— Oil Pressure Warning Light
This warning light will illuminate to indicate
low engine oil pressure. If the light turns on
while driving, stop the vehicle, shut off the
engine as soon as possible, and contact an
authorized dealer. A chime will sound when
this light turns on.
Do not operate the vehicle until the cause is
corrected. This light does not indicate how
much oil is in the engine. The engine oil level
must be checked under the hood.
— Oil Temperature Warning Light
This warning light will illuminate to indicate
the engine oil temperature is high. If the light
turns on while driving, stop the vehicle and
shut off the engine as soon as possible. Wait
for oil temperature to return to normal levels.

Service FCW Warning
If the system turns off, and the instrument
cluster displays:
• ACC/FCW Unavailable Service Required
• Cruise/FCW Unavailable Service Required
This indicates there is an internal system
fault. Although the vehicle is still drivable
under normal conditions, have the system
checked by an authorized dealer.
Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS)
NOTE:
For vehicles equipped with run flat tires —
when the TPMS indicates a tire pressure of
14 psi (96 kPa) or lower, always check tire
pressure and replace the tire at the first
opportunity. At inflation pressure of/or below
14 psi (96 kPa) the tire is in the run-flat
mode of operation. In this condition, it is
recommended a vehicle maximum speed of
50 mph (80 km/h) for a maximum distance of
50 miles (80 km). The manufacturer does not
recommend using the run flat feature while
driving a vehicle loaded at full capacity or
towing a trailer.The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
will warn the driver of a low tire pressure
based on the vehicle recommended cold tire
pressure.
The tire pressure will vary with temperature
by about 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F (6.5°C).
This means that when the outside tempera-
ture decreases, the tire pressure will de-
crease. Tire pressure should always be set
based on cold inflation tire pressure. This is
defined as the tire pressure after the vehicle
has not been driven for at least three hours, or
driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) after a
three-hour period.Refer to “Tires” in “Servic-
ing And Maintenance” for information on how to
properly inflate the vehicle’s tires.The tire
pressure will also increase as the vehicle is
driven - this is normal and there should be no
adjustment for this increased pressure.
The TPMS will warn the driver of a low tire
pressure if the tire pressure falls below the
low pressure warning threshold for any rea-
son, including low temperature effects, or
natural pressure loss through the tire.The TPMS will continue to warn the driver of
low tire pressure as long as the condition
exists, and will not turn off until the tire
pressure is at or above recommended cold
tire pressure. Once the low tire pressure
warning has been illuminated, the tire pres-
sure must be increased to the recommended
cold tire pressure in order for the TPMS
Warning Light to be turned off.
NOTE:
When filling warm tires, the tire pressure may
need to be increased up to an additional 4 psi
(28 kPa) above the recommended cold plac-
ard pressure in order to turn the TPMS Warn-
ing Light off.
The system will automatically update and the
TPMS Warning Light will extinguish once the
updated tire pressures have been received.
The vehicle may need to be driven for up to
10 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) to
receive this information.
For example, your vehicle has a recom-
mended cold (parked for more than three
hours) tire pressure of 33 psi (227 kPa). If
the ambient temperature is 68°F (20°C) and
the measured tire pressure is 28 psi
103

NOTE:
When filling warm tires, the tire pressure may
need to be increased up to an additional 4 psi
(28 kPa) above the recommended cold plac-
ard pressure in order to turn the TPMS Warn-
ing Light off.
The system will automatically update, the
graphic display of the pressure value(s) will
return to its original color and the TPMS
Warning Light will extinguish once the up-
dated tire pressure(s) have been received.
The vehicle may need to be driven for up to
10 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) to
receive this information.
Service TPM System Warning
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning
Light will flash on and off for 75 seconds, and
remain on solid when a system fault is de-
tected. The system fault will also sound a
chime. The instrument cluster display will
display a “SERVICE TPM SYSTEM” message
for a minimum of five seconds. This message
is then followed by a graphic display, with “-
-“ in place of the pressure value(s), indicat-
ing which Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensor(s)
is not being received.If the ignition switch is cycled, this sequence
will repeat, providing the system fault still
exists. If the system fault no longer exists, the
Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning
Light will no longer flash, the "SERVICE TPM
SYSTEM" message will not be present, and a
pressure value will be displayed instead of
dashes. A system fault can occur by any of
the following:
• Jamming due to electronic devices or driv-
ing next to facilities emitting the same
Radio Frequencies as the TPM sensors.
• Lots of snow or ice around the wheels or
wheel housings.
• Using tire chains on the vehicle.
• Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPM
sensors.
NOTE:
There is no tire pressure monitoring sensor in
the spare tire. The TPMS will not be able to
monitor the tire pressure. If you install the
spare tire in place of a road tire that has a
pressure below the low-pressure warning
limit, upon the next ignition switch cycle, the
Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning
Light will remain on, a chime will sound, andthe instrument cluster display will still dis-
play a pressure value in the different color
graphic display. After driving the vehicle for
up to 10 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h),
the Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning
Light will flash on and off for 75 seconds and
then remain on solid. In addition, the instru-
ment cluster display will display a “SERVICE
TPM SYSTEM" message for five seconds and
then display dashes (- -) in place of the
pressure value. For each subsequent ignition
switch cycle, a chime will sound, the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System Warning Light
will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then
remain on solid, and the instrument cluster
display will display a "SERVICE TPM SYS-
TEM" message for five seconds and then
display dashes (- -) in place of the pressure
value. Once you repair or replace the original
road tire, and reinstall it on the vehicle in
place of the spare tire, the TPMS will update
automatically.
In addition, the Tire Pressure Monitoring Sys-
tem Warning Light will turn off and the
graphic in the instrument cluster display will
display a new pressure value instead of
dashes (- -), as long as no tire pressure is
