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.

The airbag readiness light
comes on for several seconds
when the vehicle is started.
If the light does not come on
then, have it fixed immediately.
{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 78. The overhead console
has a passenger airbag status
indicator.
When the vehicle is started,
the passenger airbag status
indicator will light ON and OFF,
and 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, and the symbol for
on or off, to let you know the
status of the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag. If the word ON, and the
symbol for on, are lit on the
passenger airbag status
indicator, it means that the
front outboard passenger
frontal airbag is allowed to
inflate.
If the word OFF, and the
symbol for off, are lit on the
passenger 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, 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
