High Beam Indicator

This light comes on with the high

beam headlights. See page

for

information on the headlight

controls.

On Canadian models, this indicator

comes on with reduced brightness

when the Daytime Running Lights

(DRL) are on (see page

61

).

This light has two functions:

1. It lights as a reminder that you

have not released the parking

brake. Driving with the parking

brake applied can damage the

brakes and tires.

2. If it remains lit after you release

the parking brake while the engine

is running, or comes on while

driving, it can indicate a problem

in the brake system. For complete

information, see page

Lamp

Only on cars equipped with ABS (see

page

153

)

This light normally comes on for a

few seconds when you turn the

ignition switch ON (II), and when

the ignition switch is turned to

START (III). If this light comes on at

any other time, there is a problem in

the ABS. If this happens, take the

car to your dealer to have it checked.

With the light on, your car still has

normal braking ability but no anti-

lock. For complete information, see
