• Each time the ignition is turned to ON/RUN, the ESC

system will be ON even if it was turned off previously.

• The ESC system will make buzzing or clicking sounds

when it is active. This is normal; the sounds will stop
when ESC becomes inactive following the maneuver
that caused the ESC activation.

11. TOW/HAUL Indicator — If Equipped

The TOW/HAUL button is located on the gear
shift bezel. This light will illuminate when the
TOW/HAUL button has been selected.

12. Turn Signal Indicators

The arrow will flash with the exterior turn signal
when the turn signal lever is operated.

If the vehicle electronics sense that the vehicle has
traveled about 1 mile (1.6 km) with the turn signals 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.

13. Transmission Temperature Warning Light —
If Equipped

This light indicates that there is excessive trans-
mission fluid temperature that might occur
with severe usage such as trailer towing. If this
light comes on, stop the vehicle and run the

engine at idle or faster, with the transmission in NEU-
TRAL until the light goes off.

CAUTION!

Continuous driving with the Transmission Tempera-
ture Warning Light illuminated will eventually cause
severe transmission damage or transmission failure.
