Malfunction Indicator Lamp/Check Engine Light

If this indicator comes on while driving, there is a problem with your engine or its emission control systems. Even though you may feel no difference in your car's performance, it can reduce your fuel economy and cause your car to put out excessive emissions. Continued operation may cause serious engine damage.
If this indicator light comes on, safely pull off the road and turn off the engine. Restart the engine and watch the indicator light. If it stays on, have your car checked by the dealer as soon as possible. Drive moderately until the dealer has inspected the problem. Avoid full-throttle acceleration and driving at high speed. You should also have the dealer inspect your car if the indicator light comes on frequently, even though it goes off when you follow the above procedure.
If the electric motor will not close the moonroof, do the following: 1. Check the fuse for the moonroof motor (see page 204 ). If the fuse is blown, replace it with one of the same or lower rating. 2. Try closing the moonroof. If the new fuse blows immediately or the moonroof motor still does not operate, you can close the moonroof manually. 3. Get the tool kit out of the trunk. 4. Use a screwdriver or coin to remove the round plug in the center of the headliner.
