SERVICE RIDE CONTROL If a problem occurs with the suspension system, this message will appear on the DIC. If this message appears, stop and turn off the vehicle. Restart the vehicle and check for the message on the DIC display. If the message is still displayed, or appears again when you begin driving, the suspension system needs service. Pressing the select button will clear it from the DIC display. TIGHTEN FUEL CAP If the vehicle's fuel cap is not tightened properly this message may appear along with the check engine light on the instrument panel. See Malfunction Indicator Lamp on page 3-41. Reinstall the fuel cap, making sure to fully install the cap. See Filling Your Tank on page 5-6. The diagnostic system can determine if the fuel cap has been left off or improperly installed. A loose or missing fuel cap will allow fuel to evaporate into the atmosphere. A few driving trips with the cap properly installed should turn the light and message off. TURN SIGNAL ON If a turn signal is left on for 3/4 of a mile (1.2 km), this message will appear on the display and you will hear a chime. Move the turn signal/multifunction lever to the off position. Pressing the select button will clear it from the DIC display. CHECK WASHER FLUID If the washer fluid level is low, this message will appear on the DIC. Adding washer fluid will clear the message. Pressing the select button will clear it from the DIC display. This message will clear itself after 10 seconds until the next ignition cycle. FUEL LEVEL LOW If the fuel level is low, this message will appear on the DIC and you will hear a chime. Refuel as soon as possible. Pressing the select button will acknowledge this message immediately and clear it from the DIC display. It will also clear itself after 10 seconds until the next ignition cycle. The low fuel light near the fuel gage will still remain on in either case. TRANSMISSION HOT If the transmission fluid temperature becomes high, the message center will display this message. When the transmission enters the protection mode, you may notice a change in the transmission shifting patterns. When the transmission fluid temperature returns to normal, the display will turn off and the transmission shifting patterns will return to normal. 3-60
