/Traction control is active. If

the light remains on, have the system serviced immediately.

/Traction control has been

Airbag readiness

If this light fails to illuminate when the ignition is turned on,
continues to flash or remains on, contact your authorized dealer
as soon as possible. A chime will sound when there is a

malfunction in the indicator light.

Anti-lock brake system

If the ABS light stays illuminated or continues to flash, a
malfunction has been detected. Contact your authorized dealer
as soon as possible. Normal braking is still functional unless the

brake warning light also is illuminated.

Brake system warning light

To confirm the brake system warning light is functional, it will
momentarily illuminate when the ignition is turned to the on
position when the engine is not running, or in a position

between on and start, or by applying the parking brake when the ignition
is turned to the on position.

If it illuminates when you are driving, check that the parking brake is not
engaged. If the parking brake is not engaged, this indicates low brake
fluid level or a brake system malfunction. Have the system checked
immediately by your authorized dealer.
