Chevrolet impala 2002 User Manual

Gages can indicate when there may be or is a problem
with one of your vehicle’s functions. Often gages and
warning lights work together to let you know when
there’s a problem with your vehicle.

When one of the warning lights comes on and stays on
when you are driving, or when one of the gages shows
there may be a problem, check the section that tells you
what to do about it. Please follow this manual’s advice.
Waiting to do repairs can be costly 

--

 and even

dangerous. So please get to know your warning lights
and gages. They’re a big help.

Your vehicle may also have a Driver Information Center
(DIC) that works along with the warning lights and
gages. See “Driver Information Center (DIC)” in 
the Index.

When the key is turned to ON, a chime will come 
on for about eight seconds to remind people to fasten
their safety belts, unless the driver’s safety belt is
already buckled.

The safety belt light will
also come on and stay 
on for about 20 seconds,
then it will flash for 
about 55 seconds.
