Check engine warning lamp
E00502601960
This lamp is a part of an on-
board diagnostic system
which monitors the emis-
sions, engine control system
or A/T control system/CVT
control system.
If a problem is detected in one of these sys-
tems, this lamp illuminates or flashes.
Although your vehicle will usually be driva-
ble and not need towing, we recommend you
to have the system checked as soon as possi-
ble.
This lamp will also illuminate when the igni-
tion switch is turned “ON” or the operation
mode is put in ON, and goes off after the en-
gine has started. If it does not go off after the
engine has started, we recommend you to
have the vehicle checked.
CAUTION
l Prolonged driving with this lamp on may
cause further damage to the emission control
system. It could also affect fuel economy
and drivability.
l If the lamp does not illuminate when the ig-
nition switch is turned to the “ON” position
or the operation mode is put in ON, we rec-
ommend you to have the system checked.
