13. Air Bag Warning Light

This light will turn on for four to eight seconds

as a bulb check when the ignition switch is first

turned to ON/RUN. If the light is either not on

during starting, stays on, or turns on while

driving, have the system inspected at an authorized

dealer as soon as possible. Refer to “Occupant Restraints”

in “Things To Know Before Starting Your Vehicle” for

further information.
14. Rear Axle Lock Indicator — If Equipped

This light indicates when the rear axle lock has

been activated.

15. Tachometer

Indicates the engine speed in revolutions per minute

(RPM x 1000).

CAUTION!

Do not operate the engine with the tachometer
pointer in the red area. Engine damage will occur.

16. Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)

The Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is a part of

an Onboard Diagnostic System called OBD II that

monitors engine and automatic transmission con-

trol 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/

RUN, have the condition checked promptly.
Certain conditions, such as a loose or missing gas cap,

poor quality fuel, etc., may illuminate the light after

engine start. The vehicle should be serviced if the light

stays on through several typical driving styles. In most

situations, the vehicle will drive normally and will not

require towing.
