Light remains on:Temporary malfunctions may cause your light to illuminate. Examplesare:
1. The vehicle has run out of fuel.
2. Poor fuel quality or water in the fuel.
3. The fuel cap may not have been properly installed and securelytightened.
These temporary malfunctions can be corrected by filling the fuel tankwith high quality fuel of the recommended octane and/or properlyinstalling and securely tightening the fuel cap. After three driving cycleswithout these or any other temporary malfunctions present, the lightshould turn off. (A driving cycle consists of a cold engine startupfollowed by mixed city/highway driving.) No additional vehicle service isrequired.
If the light remains on, have your vehicle serviced at the first availableopportunity.
Light is blinking:
Engine misfire is occurring which could damage your catalytic converter.You should drive in a moderate fashion (avoid heavy acceleration anddeceleration) and have your vehicle serviced at the first availableopportunity.
Under engine misfire conditions, excessive exhaust temperaturescould damage the catalytic converter, the fuel system, interior
floor coverings or other vehicle components, possibly causing a fire.
Check fuel cap
Illuminates when the fuel cap is notinstalled correctly. Check the fuelcap for proper installation. Whenthe fuel filler cap is properlyre-installed, the light(s) will turn offafter a period of normal driving. Continuing to operate the vehicle withthe check fuel cap light on, or a mis-installed fuel cap can activate theService Engine Soon/Check Engine warning light.
It may take a long period of time for the system to detect animproperly installed fuel filler cap.
For more information, refer to Fuel filler cap in the Maintenance andspecifications chapter.

Since the air conditioner removes moisture from the air, it is
considered normal operation if water drips on the ground underthe air conditioner drain.
Operating tips
To reduce fogging under humid weather conditions, place the climatecontrol system in Defrost and Rear Defrost (if equipped) mode beforedriving.
To reduce humidity buildup inside the vehicle: Do not drive with theclimate control system in Off mode. Do not drive with the climatecontrol system in Max A/C mode (if equipped).
Under normal weather conditions, do not leave your vehicle in MaxA/C (if equipped), recirculation control (if equipped), or Off modewhen turning off the ignition.
Under snowy or dirty weather conditions, leave your vehicle in MaxA/C (if equipped), recirculation control (if equipped), or Off modewhen turning off the ignition.
Remove any snow, ice or leaves from the exterior base of thewindshield.
To increase the efficiency of the A/C (if equipped), drive with thewindows slightly open for 23 minutes or until the vehicle has beenaired out.
Do not place objects under the front seat or over the defroster ducts.They may reduce visibility, fall into the ducts, or degrade theperformance of your climate control system.

Maintenance and care of windshield wiper bladesCheck the wiper blades for wear at least twice a year or when they seemless effective. Substances such as tree sap, road salt, oil film and somehot wax treatments used by commercial car washes reduce theeffectiveness of wiper blades.
Operation of the wipers on dry glass for long periods of time may causedeterioration of the wiper blades. Always use washer fluid when usingthe wipers to remove salt or dirt from a dry windshield. Avoid using the
blades to remove frost or ice from the windshield. If the wiper blades arefrozen to the windshield, loosen the wiper blades before operating thewipers to prevent damage to the wiper system.
It the windshield is not clear after using the windshield washer wipersystem, or if the wiper blades chatter, streak or smear when operating, itis possible that wax, road salt or oil film may be on the windshield or thewiper blades. Refer to Cleaning window and wiper blades in theCleaning chapter.
Changing the wiper bladesTo make changing the wiper blades easy, turn the ignition to ACC, thenturn the wipers on. When the wipers reach the vertical position, turn theignition to LOCK.
