When the system is OK, each indicator comes on for about 2 seconds after turning the ignition switch to ON (II), or press the engine start/stop button to select the ON mode, then goes off.

When the system detects a problem, a DTC will set and depending upon the failure, the VSA modulator-control unit determines which indicator(s) will turn on. If the problem goes away (system returns to normal), the indicator(s) will be controlled in the following way depending upon the DTC that was set:

• The indicator(s) will come on and stay on when the ignition switch is ON (II), or press the engine start/stop button to select the ON mode.
• The indicator(s) will automatically go off.
• The indicator(s) will go off after the vehicle is driven.
