WARNING
Do not keep driving if the oil

the oil as soon as possible and
have the vehicle serviced.

maintenance can damage the
engine. The repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.

This light comes on briefly while
starting the engine. If it does not,
have the vehicle serviced by your
dealer. If the system is working
normally, the indicator light then
goes off.
