Airbag Warning Light
The airbag warning light should come on, and remain on,
for six to eight seconds as a bulb check when the ignition
switch is first turned ON. If the light is not lit during
starting, see your authorized dealer. If the light stays on,
flickers or comes on while driving, have the system
checked by an authorized dealer. If there is a problem
with the airbag warning light, the seat belt light will
flash.
Safety Checks You Should Make Outside The

Tires
Examine tires for tread wear or uneven wear patterns.
Check for stones, nails, glass or other objects lodged in

Inspect for tread cuts or sidewall cracks. Check wheel
nuts for tightness and tires for proper pressure.

signal and high beam indicator lights on the instrument
panel.
Door Latches

Fluid Leaks
Check area under vehicle after overnight parking for fuel,
water, oil, or other fluid leaks. Also, if fuel fumes are
