Instrument Panel Lights The instrument panel has many indicators to give you important information about your vehicle. Seat Belt Reminder Light If you turn the ignition switch to ON (II) without fastening your seat belt, the beeper starts to sound, and the indicator starts to blink. The beeper stops sounding several seconds later but the indicator will remain lit. If you drive without your seat belt fastened, the indicator remains on and the beeper will sound every few seconds. Low Oil Pressure Indicator The engine can be severely damaged if this indicator flashes or stays on when the engine is running. For complete information, see page 259 . Charging System Indicator If this indicator comes on when the engine is running, the battery is not being charged. For more information, see page 260 . Malfunction Indicator Lamp See page 260 . U.S. Canada Parking Brake and Brake System Indicator This indicator has two functions: 1. It comes on when you turn the ignition switch to ON (II). It is a reminder to check the parking brake. If you drive at certain speeds without fully releasing the parking brake, the beeper sounds continuously. Driving with the parking brake not fully released can damage the brakes and tires. 2. If it remains lit after you fully release the parking brake while the engine is running, or if it comes on while driving, there could be a problem with the brake system.
