18. Seat Belt Reminder Light

This light will turn on for five to eight seconds as
a bulb check when the ignition switch is first
turned ON. A chime will sound if the driver’s seat

belt is unbuckled during the bulb check. The Seat Belt
Reminder Light will flash or remain on continuously if
the driver’s seat belt remains unbuckled after the bulb
check or when driving.

19. Vehicle Security Light — If Equipped

The Vehicle Security Light flashes rapidly
when the Vehicle Security Alarm is arming,
and slowly when the Vehicle Security Alarm is
armed.

20. Fuel Gauge
The pointer shows the level of fuel in the fuel tank when
the ignition switch is in the ON position.

21. Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Light

This light will turn on briefly as a bulb check
when the ignition switch is turned ON. This
light will also turn on while the engine is
running if there is a problem with the Elec-

tronic Throttle Control (ETC) system.

If the light comes on while the engine is running, safely
bring the vehicle to a complete stop as soon as possible,
place the shift lever in PARK, and cycle the ignition key.
The light should turn off. If the light remains lit with the
engine running, your vehicle will usually be drivable.
However, see an authorized dealer for service as soon as
possible.

If the light is flashing when the engine is running,
immediate service is required. In this case, you may
experience reduced performance, an elevated/rough idle
or engine stall, and your vehicle may require towing.
