2005 Chevrolet Aveo Owner's Manual - Page 131

Oil Pressure Light If you have low engine oil pressure, this light will stay on after you start your engine, or come on when you are driving. {CAUTION: Do not keep driving if the oil pressure is low. If you do, your engine can become so hot that it catches fire. You or others could be burned. Check your oil as soon as possible and have your vehicle serviced. Notice: Lack of proper engine oil maintenance may damage the engine. The repairs would not be covered by your warranty. Always follow the maintenance schedule in this manual for changing engine oil. This indicates that your engine is not receiving enough oil. The engine could be low on oil, or could have some other oil problem. Have it fixed immediately by your GM dealer. The oil light could also come on in three other situations: • When the ignition is on but the engine is not running, the light will come on as a test to show you it is working. The light will go out when you turn the ignition on. If it does not come on with the ignition on, you may have a problem with the fuse or bulb. Have it fixed right away. • If you are idling at a stop sign, the light may blink on and then off. • If you make a hard stop, the light may come on for a moment. This is normal. 3-33
