Fuel, engine coolant, oil and exhaust gas leakage

Exterior and interior lamp operation
Operate the combination lamp switch to check that all lamps are functioning properly.
If the lamps do not illuminate, the probable cause is a blown fuse or defective lamp bulb. Check the fuses first. If there is no blown fuse, check the lamp bulbs.
For information regarding the inspection and replacement of the fuses and the bulbs, refer to “Fuses” and “Replacement of lamp bulbs”.
If the fuses and bulbs are all OK, we recommend you to have your vehicle checked and repaired.

If there is anything wrong, we recommend you to have your vehicle inspected.
