Instrument Panel Indicators U.S. Canada TOC Side Airbag Off Indicator This indicator comes on briefly when you turn the ignition switch to the ON (II) position. If it comes on at any other time, it indicates that the passenger's side airbag has automatically shut off. You will also see a ''PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG OFF'' message on the multiinformation display. For more information, see page 34 . Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) System Indicator This indicator normally comes on for a few seconds when you turn the ignition switch to the ON (II) position. This indicator has two functions: 1. It flashes when VSA is active (see page 293 ). 2. If it comes on and stays on at any other time, there is a problem with the VSA or hill start assist system. Take your vehicle to a dealer to have it checked. Without VSA, your vehicle still has normal driving ability, but will not have VSA traction and stability enhancement. See page 293 for more information on the VSA system. If the VSA indicator illuminates, hill start assist will not be working. Without hill start assist, the vehicle will roll downhill immediately when you release the brake on an incline. You will also see a ''CHECK VSA SYSTEM'' or ''CHECK HILL START ASSIST SYSTEM'' message on the multi-information display (see page 90 ). VSA OFF Indicator It comes on as a reminder that you have turned off the vehicle stability assist (VSA) system. This indicator normally comes on for a few seconds when you turn the ignition switch to the ON (II) position. For more information, see page 293 . Instruments and Controls 2013 Insight 65
