Parking Brake
and Brake
System Indicator

This indicator has two functions:

1. It comes on when you turn the

ignition switch to the ON (II)
position. It is a reminder to check
the parking brake. Driving with
the parking brake not fully
released can damage the rear
brakes, axles, and tires.

If you drive without releasing the
parking brake, a beeper will
sound, and you will also see a

‘‘RELEASE PARKING BRAKE’’

message on the multi-information
display (see page

81

).

2. If it stays on after you have fully

released the parking brake while
the engine is running, or if it
comes on while driving, it can
indicate a problem in the brake
system. You will also see a

‘‘LOW

BRAKE FLUID

’’ or ‘‘CHECK

BRAKE SYSTEM

’’ message on the

multi-information display (see
pages

81

). For more information,

see page
