If the vehicle is driven more than 1 mile (1.6 km) with

either turn signal on, a continuous chime will sound to

alert you to turn the signals off. If either indicator flashes

at a rapid rate, check for a defective outside light bulb.
9. High Beam Indicator

This indicator shows that the high beam head-

lights are on. Push the multifunction lever for-

ward to switch the headlights to high beam, and pull

toward yourself (normal position) to return to low beam.
10. Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) Light

This light monitors the Anti-Lock Brake System

(ABS). The light will turn on when the ignition

switch is turned to the ON/RUN position and

may stay on for as long as four seconds.

If the ABS light remains on or turns on while driving, it

indicates that the Anti-Lock portion of the brake system

is not functioning and that service is required. However,

the conventional brake system will continue to operate

normally if the BRAKE warning light is not on.
If the ABS light is on, the brake system should be serviced

as soon as possible to restore the benefits of Anti-Lock

brakes. If the ABS light does not turn on when the

ignition switch is turned to the ON/RUN position, have

the light inspected by an authorized dealer.
11. Seat Belt Reminder Light

When the ignition switch is first turned to ON/

RUN, this light will turn on for four to eight

seconds as a bulb check. During the bulb check, if

the driver’s seat belt is unbuckled, a chime will sound.

After the bulb check or when driving, if the driver’s seat

belt remains unbuckled, the Seat Belt Reminder Light

will illuminate and the chime will sound. Refer to

“Occupant Restraints” in “Things To Know Before Start-

ing Your Vehicle” for further information.
