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

11. Engine Temperature Warning Light

This light will turn on and a single chime will
sound to warn of an overheated engine condition.

When this light turns on, the engine temperature is
critically hot. Further overheating will cause a continu-
ous chime will sound for 4 minutes or until the engine is
allowed to cool. The vehicle should be turned OFF
immediately and serviced as soon as possible.

12. Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Activation/
Malfunction Indicator Light — If Equipped

The “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator
Light” in the instrument cluster will come on
when the ignition switch is turned to the

ON/RUN position. It should go out with the engine
running. If the “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator
Light” comes on continuously with the engine running, a
malfunction has been detected in the ESC system. If this
light remains on after several ignition cycles, and the
vehicle has been driven several miles (kilometers) at
speeds greater than 30 mph (48 km/h), see your autho-
rized dealer as soon as possible to have the problem
diagnosed and corrected.

NOTE:

The “ESC Off Indicator Light” and the “ESC Activation/
Malfunction Indicator Light” come on momentarily each
time the ignition switch is turned to ON/RUN.

Each time the ignition is turned to ON/RUN, the ESC
system will be ON, even if it was turned off previously.
