You must apply the brakes before shifting from

19. Oil Pressure Warning Light

This light shows low engine oil pressure. The light
should turn on momentarily when the engine is

started. If the light turns on while driving, stop the
vehicle and shut off the engine as soon as possible. A
chime will sound for 4 minutes when this light turns on.

Do not operate the vehicle until the cause is corrected.
This light does not show how much oil is in the engine.
The engine oil level must be checked under the hood.

20. High Beam Light

This light shows that the headlights are on high
beam. Pull the turn signal lever towards the

steering wheel to switch the headlights from high or low
beam.

21. Malfunction Indicator Light

This light is part of an onboard diagnostic system
called OBD that monitors engine and automatic
transmission control systems. The light will illu-

minate when the key is in the ON position before engine
start. If the bulb does not come when turning the key
from OFF to ON, have the condition checked promptly.

Certain conditions such as a loose or missing gas cap,
poor fuel quality, etc. may illuminate the light after
engine start. The vehicle should be serviced if the light
stays on through several of your typical driving cycles. In
most situations the vehicle will drive normally and will
not require towing.

The Malfunction Indicator Light flashes to alert to serious
conditions that could lead to immediate loss of power or
severe catalytic converter damage. The vehicle should be
serviced as soon as possible if this occurs.
