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 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.

Engine Oil Pressure Gauge
Metric Sport Mode Gauge View Shown,Others Similar
English Sport Mode Gauge View Shown, Others Similar
The engine oil pressure gauge shows the
engine oil pressure in kPa (kilopascals)
or psi (pounds per square inch) when the
engine is running.
Oil pressure can vary with engine speed,
outside temperature, coolant temperature,
and oil viscosity.
On some models, the oil pump will vary
engine oil pressure according to engine
needs. Oil pressure may change quickly as
the engine speed or load varies. This is
normal. If the oil pressure warning light or
Driver Information Center (DIC) message indicates oil pressure outside the normal
operating range, check the engine oil as
soon as possible.
See
Engine Oil 0264.
Caution
Lack of proper engine oil maintenance
can damage the engine. Driving with the
engine oil low can also damage the
engine. The repairs would not be covered
by the vehicle warranty. Check the oil
level as soon as possible. Add oil if
required, but if the oil level is within the
operating range and the oil pressure is
still low, have the vehicle serviced.
Always follow the maintenance schedule
for changing engine oil.

This gauge shows the engine oil
temperature.
If the gauge pointer moves into the high
end, it means that the engine oil has
overheated. If the vehicle has been operated
under normal driving conditions, pull off the
road, stop the vehicle, and turn off the
engine as soon as possible.

When the remaining oil life is low, the
CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON message will
appear on the display. The oil should be
changed as soon as possible. SeeEngine Oil
0 264. In addition to the engine oil life
system monitoring the oil life, additional
maintenance is recommended. See
Maintenance Schedule 0330.
The Oil Life display must be reset after each
oil change. It will not reset itself. Do not
reset the Oil Life display accidentally at any
time other than when the oil has just been
changed. It cannot be reset accurately until
the next oil change. To reset, see Engine Oil
Life System 0266.
Engine Air Filter Life : Displays an estimate
of the engine air filter’s remaining useful life
and the state of the system. Engine Air
Filter Life 95% means 95% of the current air
filter life remains. Messages are displayed
based on the engine air filter life and the
state of the system. When the REPLACE AT
NEXT OIL CHANGE message displays, the
engine air filter should be replaced at the
time of the next oil change. When the
REPLACE NOW message displays, the engine
air filter should be replaced as soon as
possible. To reset, see Engine Air Filter Life
System 0267. Fuel Economy :

Head-Up Display (HUD)
{Warning
If the HUD image is too bright or too
high in your field of view, it may take
you more time to see things you need to
see when it is dark outside. Be sure to
keep the HUD image dim and placed low
in your field of view.
If equipped with HUD, some information
about the operation of the vehicle is
projected onto the windshield. The image is
projected through the HUD lens on top of
the instrument panel. The information
appears as an image focused out toward the
front of the vehicle.
Caution
If you try to use the HUD image as a
parking aid, you may misjudge the
distance and damage your vehicle. Do not
use the HUD image as a parking aid.
The HUD information can be displayed in
various languages. The speedometer reading
and other numerical values can be displayed
in either English or metric units.
The language selection is changed through
the radio, and the units of measurement are
changed through the instrument cluster. See
Settings 0150.
