FIAT Freemont - Manual (Page 196)

NOTE: This light shows only that the parking brake is
applied. It does not show the degree of brake applica-
tion.
12. Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) Light
This light monitors the Anti-Lock Brake Sys-
tem (ABS). The light will turn on when the
ignition switch is turned to the ON/RUN
position and may stay on for as long as four
seconds.
If the ABS light remains on or turns on while driving, it
indicates that the Anti-Lock portion of the brake sys-
tem is not functioning and that service is required.
However, the conventional brake system will continue
to operate normally if the Brake System Warning Light
is not on.
If the ABS light is on, the brake system should be
serviced as soon as possible to restore the benefit of
Anti-Lock brakes. Furthermore, the ABS light should
be checked frequently to assure that it is operating
properly. If the light does not turn on, have the system
checked by an authorized dealer. (Refer to “Electronic
Brake Control System” in “Starting And Driving” for
further information).
13. Fuel Cap Indicator
This symbol indicates the side of the vehicle
where the fuel filler cap is located.
14. Rear Fog Light Indicator — If Equipped
This indicator will illuminate when the rear fog
lights are on. (Refer to “Rear Fog Lights” in
“Knowing Your Vehicle” for further informa-
tion).
15. Vehicle Security Light — If Equipped
This light will flash rapidly for approximately
16 seconds when the vehicle security system
is arming and then flash slowly when the
system is armed. The light will also turn on
for about three seconds when the ignition switch is
first turned to ON/RUN. (Refer to “Vehicle Security
Alarm” or “Premium Security System” in “Knowing
Your Vehicle” for further information).
