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 propulsion system 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.
Instrument Cluster
The instrument cluster displays a preview of
information that includes electric range,
charging, odometer, and battery status. This
happens upon entry when the driver door is
opened, before starting the vehicle. This
preview will dismiss after starting the
vehicle or soon after closing the driver door.

84 Instruments and Controls
Passenger Airbag Status Indicator
The vehicle has a passenger sensing system.
SeePassenger Sensing System 044 for
important safety information. The overhead
console has a passenger airbag status
indicator.
United States
Canada
When the vehicle is started, the passenger
airbag status indicator will light ON and OFF,
or the symbol for on and off, for several
seconds as a system check. Then, after
several seconds, the status indicator will
light either ON or OFF, or the on or off symbol to let you know the status of the
front outboard passenger frontal airbag and
knee airbag.
If the word ON or the on symbol 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 or the off symbol 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

for more information, including important
safety information.
Charging System Light (12-Volt
Battery)
The charging system light comes on briefly
when the vehicle is started, as a check to
show the light is working.
If the light stays on, or comes on while
driving, there could be a problem with the
electrical charging system. Have it checked
by your dealer. Driving while this light is on
could drain the 12-volt battery.
If a short distance must be driven with the
light on, be sure to turn off all accessories,
such as the radio. Find a safe place to stop
the vehicle.
