CHECK GAS CAP This message displays if the fuel cap has not been fully tightened. Check the fuel cap to make sure that it is on properly. Once tightened, it takes at least one overnight park to reset or clear this message. If both the CHECK GAS CAP message and the malfunction indicator lamp in the instrument panel cluster are on, you may need to see your dealer/retailer for service. See Malfunction Indicator Lamp on page 3-43 for more information. CLOSE TRUNK TO MOVE TOP This message displays and a chime sounds if the trunk is open while you are trying to operate the convertible top. Make sure the trunk is closed before operating the convertible top. See Convertible Top (Manual) on page 2-63 or Convertible Top (Power) on page 2-70. COMPETITIVE DRIVING MODE This message displays and a short chime sounds when the Competitive Driving mode is selected. The instrument panel cluster light will not be on when the Competitive Driving mode is selected. The Traction Control System (TCS) will not be operating while in the Competitive Driving mode. Adjust your driving accordingly. See Racing or Other Competitive Driving on page 4-15 for more information. CHECK OIL LEVEL On some vehicles, this message displays and two chimes sound if the oil level in the vehicle is low. Once the vehicle senses a change in the engine oil level, the light remains off. If this message appears after starting the engine, the engine oil level may be too low. You may need to add oil. See Engine Overheating on page 5-31.
