When the vehicle is started, the passenger
airbag status indicator will light ON and OFF,
or the symbols for on and off, for several
seconds as a system check. Then, after
several more 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.
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 is allowed to inflate.
If the word OFF or the off symbol is lit on
the airbag status indicator, it means that
the passenger sensing system has turned off
the front outboard passenger frontal airbag.
If, after several seconds, both status
indicator lights remain on, if there are no
lights at all, or if the airbag readiness light is on, there may be a problem with the
lights or the passenger sensing system. See
your dealer for service right away.
{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 085
for more information, including important
safety information.
Charging System Light
The charging system light comes on briefly
when the ignition is turned on, but the
engine is not running, as a check to show

the engine is started. If the light stays on, or comes on while
driving, there may be a problem with the
electrical charging system. Have it checked
by your dealer. Driving while this light is on
could drain the battery.
When this light comes on, or is flashing, the
Driver Information Center (DIC) also displays
a message.
If a short distance must be driven with the
light on, be sure to turn off all accessories,
such as the radio and air conditioner. Find a
safe place to stop the vehicle.

been replaced or run down, or if the
vehicle has been recently serviced. See your dealer if the vehicle will not pass
or cannot be made ready for the test.

limited when the brake system warning
light comes on. The brake pedal might be
harder to push, or the brake pedal may go
