NOTE:

The light may flash momentarily during sharp

cornering maneuvers which change fluid level condi-

tions. The vehicle should have service performed, and

the brake fluid level checked.
If brake failure is indicated, immediate repair is neces-

sary.

WARNING!

Driving a vehicle with the brake light on is danger-
ous. Part of the brake system may have failed. It will
take longer to stop the vehicle. You could have a
collision. Have the vehicle checked immediately.

Vehicles equipped with the Anti-Lock Brake System

(ABS) are also equipped with Electronic Brake Force

Distribution (EBD). In the event of an EBD failure, the

Brake Warning Light will turn on along with the ABS

Light. Immediate repair to the ABS system is required.

Operation of the Brake Warning Light can be checked by

placing the ignition from the OFF position to the ON/

RUN position. The light should illuminate for approxi-

mately two seconds. The light should then turn off unless

the parking brake is applied or a brake fault is detected.

If the light does not illuminate, have the light inspected

by an authorized dealer.
The light also will turn on when the parking brake is

applied with the ignition in the ON/RUN position.
NOTE:

This light shows only that the parking brake is

applied. It does not show the degree of brake application.
4. Air Bag Warning Light

This light will turn on for four to eight seconds

as a bulb check when the ignition is first cycled

to the ON/RUN position. If the light is either

not on during starting, stays on, or turns on
