CHECK OIL LEVEL - 5: If you ever see the CHECK OIL LEVEL
message, it indicates that the engine oil level is 1 to 1 1/2 quarts (0.9 L
to 1.4 L) low. The message will appear only if the engine is running and it
has been at least eight minutes since the engine was last running. If the message
appears, check the oil dipstick level. If it reads low, your oil level should be
brought up to the proper level. See
Engine Oil
.
After bringing the oil to the proper level, the ignition must be off for eight minutes
to allow the majority of oil to drain into the oil pan.
SERV STABILITY SYS - 26: If you ever see the SERV STABILITY
SYS message, it means there may be a problem with your stability enhancement system.
If you see this message, try to reset the system (stop; turn off the engine; then
start the engine again). If the SERV STABILITY SYS message still comes on, it means
there is a problem. You should see your dealer for service. Reduce your speed and
drive accordingly.
STABILITY ACTIVE - 25: You may see the STABILITY ACTIVE
message on the Driver Information Center (DIC). It means that an advanced, computer-controlled
system has come on to help your vehicle continue to go in the direction in which
you're steering. This stability enhancement system activates when the computer senses
that your vehicle is just starting to spin, as it might if you hit a patch of ice
or other slippery spot on the road. When the system is on, you may hear a noise or
feel a vibration in the brake pedal. This is normal.
When the STABILITY ACTIVE message is on, you should continue to steer in the
direction you want to go. The system is designed to help you in bad weather or other
difficult driving situations by making the most of whatever road conditions will
permit. If the STABILITY ACTIVE message comes on, you'll know that something has
caused your vehicle to start to spin, so you should consider slowing down.
