13. Oil Pressure Gauge

Indicates engine oil pressure. This gauge does not
indicate oil level, and pressure varies with engine

speed, temperature and oil viscosity. Consistent lower
readings indicate possible malfunction. Seek authorized
service.

14. Coolant Temperature Gauge

Indicates engine coolant temperature. The red
zone to the far right indicates possible overheat-
ing. Seek authorized service immediately if the

gauge operates in the red zone. In U.S. vehicles, tempera-
ture is indicated in degrees fahrenheit; in Canadian
vehicles in degrees centigrade.

15. Airbag Warning Light

This indicator lights and remains lit for 6 to 8
seconds when the ignition is first turned on. If
the light does not come on for 6 to 8 seconds,

stays on or comes on while driving, have the airbag
system checked by an authorized dealer.

16. Check Gauges Warning Light

This light monitors the engine coolant tem-
perature, engine oil pressure, and voltage
gauges. If it detects an extreme condition a

chime will sound and the light will come on. If the light
comes on, check the operation of these gauges for a
malfunction condition.

17. Malfunction Indicator Light

This light is a part of an Onboard Diagnostic
System called OBD II that monitors engine, and
automatic transmission control systems. The light

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