WHITE INDICATOR LIGHTS
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) Ready 
Light — If Equipped 
This indicator light will illuminate when 
the vehicle equipped with ACC has been 
turned on but not set  Úpage 149.
Cruise Control Ready Indicator Light 
This indicator light will illuminate when 
the cruise control is ready, but not set  
Úpage 147.
LaneSense Indicator Light — If Equipped
When the LaneSense system is ON, but 
not armed, the LaneSense indicator light 
illuminates solid white. This occurs when 
only left, right, or neither lane line has 
been detected. If a single lane line is detected, the 
system is ready to provide only visual warnings if 
an unintentional lane departure occurs on the 
detected lane line  Ú page 168.
Set Speed Display
The Set Speed Display indicator light 
indicates the set speed for the Cruise 
Control and Adaptive Cruise Control 
(ACC) settings.
BLUE INDICATOR LIGHTS
High Beam Indicator Light
This indicator light will illuminate to 
indicate that the high beam headlights 
are on. With the low beams activated, 
push the multifunction lever forward 
(toward the front of the vehicle) to turn on the high 
beams. Pull the multifunction lever rearward 
(toward the rear of the vehicle) to turn off the high 
beams. If the high beams are off, pull the lever 
toward you for a temporary high beam on, “flash to 
pass” scenario.
ONBOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM — OBD II  
Your vehicle is equipped with a sophisticated 
Onboard Diagnostic system called OBD II. This 
system monitors the performance of the 
emissions, engine, and automatic transmission 
control systems. When these systems are 
operating properly, your vehicle will provide 
excellent performance and fuel economy, as well 
as emissions well within current government 
regulations. If any of these systems require service, the OBD II 
system will turn on the Malfunction Indicator Light 
(MIL). It will also store diagnostic codes and other 
information to assist your service technician in 
making repairs. Although your vehicle will usually 
be drivable and not need towing, see an authorized 
dealer for service as soon as possible.
ONBOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM 
(OBD II) C
YBERSECURITY
Your vehicle is required to have OBD II and a 
connection port to allow access to information 
related to the performance of your emissions 
controls. Authorized service technicians may need 
to access this information to assist with the 
diagnosis and service of your vehicle and 
emissions system  Ú page 188.
CAUTION!
Prolonged driving with the MIL on could cause 
further damage to the emission control 
system. It could also affect fuel economy and 
driveability. The vehicle must be serviced 
before any emissions tests can be performed.
If the MIL is flashing while the vehicle is 
running, severe catalytic converter damage 
and power loss will soon occur. Immediate 
service is required.

EMISSIONS INSPECTION AND 
MAINTENANCE PROGRAMS  
In some localities, it may be a legal requirement to 
pass an inspection of your vehicle's emissions 
control system. Failure to pass could prevent 
vehicle registration. For states that require an Inspection and 
Maintenance (I/M), this check verifies 
the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is 
functioning and is not on when the 
engine is running, and that the OBD II system is 
ready for testing.
Normally, the OBD II system will be ready. The 
OBD II system may  not be ready if your vehicle was 
recently serviced, recently had a depleted battery 
or a battery replacement. If the OBD II system 
should be determined not ready for the I/M test, 
your vehicle may fail the test.
Your vehicle has a simple ignition actuated test, 
which you can use prior to going to the test station. 
To check if your vehicle's OBD II system is ready, 
you must do the following:
1. Cycle the ignition switch to the ON position,  but do not crank or start the engine.
NOTE:If you crank or start the engine, you will have to 
start this test over.
2. As soon as you cycle the ignition switch to the ON position, you will see the Malfunction 
Indicator Light (MIL) symbol come on as part of 
a normal bulb check. 3. Approximately 15 seconds later, one of two 
things will happen:
The MIL will flash for about 10 seconds and 
then return to being fully illuminated until 
you turn OFF the ignition or start the engine. 
This means that your vehicle's OBD II 
system is  not ready and you should  not 
proceed to the I/M station.
The MIL will not flash at all and will remain 
fully illuminated until you place the ignition 
in the off position or start the engine. This 
means that your vehicle's OBD II system is 
ready  and you can proceed to the I/M 
station.
If your OBD II system is  not ready, you should see 
an authorized dealer or repair facility. If your 
vehicle was recently serviced or had a battery 
failure or replacement, you may need to do nothing 
more than drive your vehicle as you normally would 
in order for your OBD II system to update. A 
recheck with the above test routine may then 
indicate that the system is  now ready.
Regardless of whether your vehicle's OBD II system 
is ready or not, if the MIL is illuminated during 
normal vehicle operation you should have your 
vehicle serviced before going to the I/M station. 
The I/M station can fail your vehicle because the 
MIL is on with the engine running.
WARNING!
ONLY an authorized service technician should 
connect equipment to the OBD II connection 
port in order to read the VIN, diagnose, or 
service your vehicle.
If unauthorized equipment is connected to the 
OBD II connection port, such as a 
driver-behavior tracking device, it may:
Be possible that vehicle systems, 
including safety related systems, could be 
impaired or a loss of vehicle control could 
occur that may result in an accident 
involving serious injury or death.
Access, or allow others to access, infor -
mation stored in your vehicle systems, 
including personal information.
