The appropriate indicator comes on
in this display if the trunk, the roof
panel, the rear window, or either
door is not closed tightly. If a brake
light does not work, the
indicator comes on when you
push the brake pedal with the
ignition switch ON (II).
A burned out brake light is a hazard
when drivers behind you cannot tell
you are braking. Have your brake
lights repaired right away.
All the indicators in the monitor
display come on for a few seconds
when you turn the ignition switch to
ON (II).
This indicator normally comes on
when you turn the ignition to ON (II)
and goes off after the engine starts.
If it comes on at any other time,
there is a problem in the Electric
Power Steering system. If this
happens, stop the vehicle in a safe
place, and turn off the engine. Reset
the system by restarting the engine,
and watch the EPS indicator. If it
does not go off, or comes back on
again while driving, take the vehicle
to your dealer to have it checked.
With the indicator on, the EPS is
turned off, making the vehicle
harder to steer.
This indicator has three functions:
It comes on as a reminder that you
have turned off the Traction
Control System.
It flashes when the TCS is
regulating the engine power.
If it comes on and stays on when
the Traction Control System is on,
it indicates that there is a problem
in the TCS.
This light also comes on when you
turn the ignition ON (II) and goes off
after the engine starts. See page
for more information on the
TCS.
