OIL PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT
Light indicates that oil is not going through the engine quickly enough to keep it properly lubricated and cool. Engine oil pressure, not the amount of oil in the engine is indicated, however, oil level may affect oil pressure. Under normal operating conditions, the light will come on as a test when ignition switch is in ON position and go out when the engine is started.
Oil pressure warning light may blink on and off when engine is idling at a stop or may come on briefly when a hard stop is made. This is normal. If this light illuminates during normal vehicle operation, oil level should be checked immediately.
BRAKE SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT
The BRAKE warning light indicates two things; either the parking brake is engaged or brake fluid is below prescribed level. The light should come on briefly when ignition switch is turned to the ON position and goes out after engine is started, and the parking brake is released. If the light stays on, servicing is needed.
CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT
Comes on briefly during engine start as a bulb check. If it remains on or comes on while driving, it indicates a potential engine control problem. Continued driving without checking the system may affect fuel economy and derivability or cause possible damage to the emission system.
LOW FUEL WARNING LIGHT
Light comes on when the fuel level in the tank falls to approximately 2.1 gallons (8 liters).
ALTERNATOR SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT
This light is shown as a battery symbol on the instrument cluster. It will illuminate briefly when ignition is turned to ON or START position, and should go out when the engine starts and alternator begins to charge. If light stays on or comes on when the engine is running, the battery is not being charged and the electrical system needs service.
