Charge warning lamp
E00502700036
This lamp illuminates when the ignition
switch is turned to the “ON” position,
and the lamp goes off after the engine
has started.
In the event of a fault in the charging sys-
tem, the warning lamp comes on and a
buzzer sounds.
CAUTION
l
If the warning lamp illuminates
and a buzzer sounds while the
engine is running, there is a

tem. In this case, immediately
park your vehicle in a safe

to have it checked.
Oil pressure warning lamp
E00502800053
This lamp illuminates when the ignition
switch is turned to the “ON” position,
and the lamp goes off after the engine
has started. If it illuminates and a buzzer
sounds while the engine is running, the
oil pressure is too low.
If the warning lamp illuminates while
the engine is running, turn the engine off
and have it inspected.
CAUTION
l
If this lamp illuminates when
the engine oil level is not low,
have it inspected.
l
This warning lamp does not in-
dicate the amount of oil in the
crankcase. This must be deter-
mined by checking the oil level
on the dipstick, while the en-
gine is switched off.
l
If you continue driving with
low engine oil level or with this
warning lamp illuminated, en-
gine seizure may occur.
NOTE
l
The oil pressure warning lamp
should not be treated as an indica-
tion of the engine’s oil level. The
oil level must be checked using
the dipstick.

This lamp illuminates and a buzzer
sounds if the coolant temperature be-
comes excessively high.
CAUTION
l
If the lamp illuminates during
vehicle operation, it indicates
that the engine is possibly over-
heating. Continued driving
could make the engine fail. Im-
mediately stop the vehicle in a
safe place and take appropriate
action. (Refer to “Engine over-
heating” on page 6-04.)
NOTE
l
The high coolant temperature
warning lamp may illuminates
when the vehicle has been driven
at high speeds or on hilly roads.
This flashing does not necessarily
indicate a problem. It should stop
if you keep the engine running for
a while or continue driving the ve-
hicle.
