    							POWER WINDOWS
    WARNINGS
    Do not leave children unattended in
    your vehicle and do not let them play
    with the power windows. They may
    seriously injure themselves. When closing the power windows,
    you should verify they are free of
    obstructions and make sure that
    children and pets are not in the proximity
    of the window openings. Note:
    You may hear a pulsing noise when
    just one of the windows is open. Lower the
    opposite window slightly to reduce this
    noise.
    Note: Use the singular control (if equipped)
    to open both rear windows.

    closing. It will reverse some distance if
    there is an obstacle in the way.
    Overriding the Bounce-Back Feature
    WARNING
    When you override the bounce-back
    feature the window will not reverse
    if it detects an obstacle. Take care
    when closing the windows to avoid
    personal injury or damage to your vehicle. Pull up the window switch and hold within
    two seconds of the window reaching the
    bounce-back position. The window will
    travel up with no bounce-back protection.

    Signal Indicator Mirrors
    The outer portion of the appropriate mirror
    housing will blink when you switch on the
    turn signal.
    INTERIOR MIRROR WARNING
    Do not adjust the mirror when your
    vehicle is moving.
    Note:
    Do not clean the housing or glass of
    any mirror with harsh abrasives, fuel or other

    and back of the mirror. Mirror performance
    may be affected. A rear center passenger or
    raised rear center head restraint may also
    block light from reaching the sensor.
    To reduce glare, the mirror dims
    automatically when it detects bright lights
    from behind your vehicle. It automatically
    returns to normal reflection when you
    select reverse (R) gear to make sure you

    							Fuel Gauge
    Note:
    The fuel gauge may vary slightly
    when your vehicle is moving or on a gradient.
    Switch the ignition on. The fuel gauge will
    indicate approximately how much fuel is
    left in the fuel tank. The arrow adjacent to
    the fuel pump symbol indicates on which
    side of your vehicle the fuel filler door is
    located.
    The needle should move toward F when
    you refuel your vehicle. If the needle points
    to E after adding fuel, this indicates your
    vehicle needs service soon.
    After refueling some variability in needle
    position is normal: •
    It may take a short time for the needle
    to reach F after leaving the gas station.
    This is normal and depends upon the
    slope of pavement at the gas station.
    • The fuel amount dispensed into the
    tank is a little less or more than the
    gauge indicated. This is normal and
    depends upon the slope of pavement
    at the gas station.
    • If the gas station nozzle shuts off
    before the tank is full, try a different
    gas pump nozzle.
    Low Fuel Reminder
    A low fuel reminder triggers when the
    distance to empty value reaches 80 km
    (50 mi) to empty, with additional warnings
    at 
    40 km (25 mi), 20 km (10 mi) and 0 km
    (0 mi) to empty, provided the message is
    cleared each time. An additional warning
    at 
    120 km (75 mi) to empty is provided
    when the MyKey is being used.
    Variations:
    Note: The low fuel warning and distance-to-empty warning can appear at different fuel
    gauge positions depending on fuel economy conditions. This variation is normal. Fuel gauge position

    Engine Coolant Temperature
    Gauge WARNING
    Never remove the coolant reservoir
    cap while the engine is running or hot. Indicates engine coolant temperature. At
    normal operating temperature, the level
    indicator will be in the normal range. If the
    engine coolant temperature exceeds the
    normal range, stop your vehicle as soon as
    safely possible, switch off the engine and
    let it cool.

    INDICATORS
    The following warning lamps and
    indicators will alert you to a vehicle
    condition that may become serious. Some
    lamps will illuminate when you start your
    vehicle to make sure they work. If any
    lamps remain on after starting your vehicle,
    refer to the respective system warning
    lamp for further information.
    Note:
    Some warning indicators appear in
    the information display and function the
    same as a warning lamp but do not display
    when you start your vehicle.
    Anti-Lock Braking System If it illuminates when you are
    driving, this indicates a
    malfunction. You will continue

    warning lamp is also illuminated. Have the
    system checked by your authorized dealer.

    turn signal or the hazard warning
    flasher is turned on. If the

    pressure is low. If the lamp
    remains on with the engine
    running or when driving, check your tire
    pressures as soon as possible.
    It will also illuminate momentarily when
    you switch the ignition on to confirm the
    lamp is functional. If it does not illuminate

    							Service Engine Soon
    If the service engine soon
    indicator light stays illuminated
    after the engine is started, it
    indicates that the On Board Diagnostics
    system (OBD) has detected a malfunction
    of the vehicle emissions control system.
    Refer to On board diagnostics (OBD) in
    the Fuel and Refueling chapter for more
    information about having your vehicle
    serviced.
    If the light is blinking, engine misfire is
    occurring which could damage your
    catalytic converter. Drive in a moderate
    fashion (avoid heavy acceleration and
    deceleration) and have your vehicle
    serviced immediately. WARNING
    Under engine misfire conditions,
    excessive exhaust temperatures
    could damage the catalytic
    converter, the fuel system, interior floor
    coverings or other vehicle components,
    possibly causing a fire. Have an authorized
    dealer service your vehicle immediately. The service engine soon indicator light
    illuminates when the ignition is first turned
    on prior to engine start to check the bulb
    and to indicate whether the vehicle is ready
    for Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) testing.
    Normally, the service engine soon light will
    stay on until the engine is cranked, then
    turn itself off if no malfunctions are
    present. However, if after 15 seconds the
    service engine soon light blinks eight times,
    it means that the vehicle is not ready for
    I/M testing. Stability Control It will flash when the system is
    active. If it remains illuminated
    or does not illuminate when you
    switch the ignition on, this indicates a
    malfunction. During a malfunction the
    system will switch off. Have the system
    checked by your authorized dealer
    immediately.  See Using Stability
    Control (page 119).
    Stability Control Off It will illuminate when you switch
    the system off. It will go out
    when you switch the system
    back on or when you switch the ignition
    off.  See 
    Using Stability Control (page
    119).
    AUDIBLE WARNINGS AND
    INDICATORS
    Keyless Warning Alert
    The horn will sound twice when you exit
    your vehicle with the intelligent access key
    and your vehicle is in ON, indicating your
    vehicle is still on. The horn will also sound
    twice when you exit your vehicle and
    attempt to lock the doors manually while
    the intelligent access key is still in the
    vehicle. The doors will not lock if the
    intelligent access key remains in the
    vehicle.
