Overdrive Cancel and Grade Assist (if equipped)

It will illuminate when the overdrive function of the
transmission has been turned off and the grade assist function
has been turned on.

Parking Lamps

It will illuminate when you switch the parking lamps or headlam
ps on.

Powertrain Malfunction/Reduced Power

It will illuminate when a powertrain or high-voltage charge system
fault has been detected. If the indicator stays on or continues to
come on, contact your authorized dealer as soon as possible.

Ready to Drive

It will illuminate once the vehicle has been switched on and is
ready to drive. A corresponding message may display stating
ready to drive or a message regarding budget if a charge point

has not been entered.

Service Engine Soon

The service engine soon indicator light illuminates when the
ignition is first turned to the on position to check the bulb and to
indicate whether the vehicle is ready for Inspection/Maintenance

(I/M) testing. Normally, the “service engine soon” light will stay on until the
engine is cranked, then turn itself off if no malfunctions are present.
However, if after 15 seconds the “service engine soon” light blinks eight
times, it means that the vehicle is not ready for I/M testing. See the
Readiness for inspection/maintenance (I/M) testing in the Fuel and
Refueling
chapter.

Solid illumination after the engine is started indicates the on-board
diagnostics system (OBD-II) has detected a malfunction. Refer to
On-board diagnostics (OBD-II) in the Fuel and Refueling chapter.
If the light is blinking, engine misfire is occurring which could damage
your catalytic converter. Drive in a moderate fashion (avoid heavy
acceleration and deceleration) and have your vehicle serviced
immediately by your authorized dealer.

WARNING: Under engine misfire conditions, excessive exhaust
temperatures could damage the catalytic converter, the fuel

system, interior floor coverings or other vehicle components, possibly
causing a fire.
