WARNING!
A malfunctioning catalytic converter, as referenced above, can reach higher temperatures
than in normal operating conditions. This can cause a fire if you drive slowly or park
over flammable substances such as dry plants, wood, cardboard, etc. This could result in
death or serious injury to the driver, occupants or others.
CAUTION!
Prolonged driving with the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) on could cause damage to
the vehicle control system. It also could affect fuel economy and driveability. If the MIL
is flashing, severe catalytic converter damage and power loss will soon occur. Immediate
service is required.
SERV (Service) 4WD Indicator Light If Equipped
If the light stays on or comes on during driving, it means that the 4WD system is not
functioning properly and that service is required. We recommend you drive to the near-
est service center and have the vehicle serviced immediately.
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light
If this indicator light flashes during acceleration, apply as little throttle as possible. While
driving, ease up on the accelerator. Adapt your speed and driving to the prevailing road
conditions. To improve the vehicle's traction when starting off in deep snow, sand or
gravel, it may be desirable to switch the ESC sys tem off.
Enhanced Accident Response System Warning Light
The light illuminates when there is a fuel system shut off.
Enhanced Accident Response System Failure Warning Light
The light illuminates in case of failure of the Enhanced Accident Response System.
Instrument Cluster Indicator Lights
Turn Signal Indicator
The arrows will flash with the exterior turn signals when the turn signal lever is oper-
ated. A tone will chime, and an instrument cluster display message will appear if either
turn signal is left on for more than 1 mile (1.6 km).
NOTE:
If either indicator flashes at a rapid rate, check for a defective outside light bulb.
