Antilock Brake System
(ABS) Warning Light

This light comes on briefly when the
engine is started.

If the light does not come on, have
it fixed so it will be ready to warn if
there is a problem.

If the ABS light stays on, turn the
ignition off.

If the light comes on while
driving, stop as soon as it is safely
possible and turn off the vehicle.

Then start the engine again to reset
the system. If the ABS light stays
on, or comes on again while driving,
the vehicle needs service. A chime
may also sound when the light
comes on steady.

If the ABS light is the only light on,
the vehicle has regular brakes,
but the antilock brakes are not
functioning.

If both the ABS and the brake
system warning light are on, the
vehicle's antilock brakes are not
functioning and there is a problem
with the regular brakes. See your
dealer for service.

Traction Off Light

This light comes on when the
Traction Control System (TCS)
has been turned off by pressing and
releasing the traction control button.

This light also comes on and the
system turns off if there is a problem
with the traction control system.

If the light comes on and stays on
for an extended period of time while
the system is turned on, the vehicle
needs service.
