Brake System Warning Light

Three different types of operations exist

depending on the vehicle's specification.
1) The light comes on briefly when the
ignition switch is turned to the "ON"
position or the engine switch is pressed
to change the ignition mode to "ON".
2) The light comes on when the parking
brake is engaged with the ignition
switch in the "ON" position or the igni-
tion mode "ON".
3) The light comes on when under either
or both of above two conditions.
The light also comes on when the fluid in
the brake fluid reservoir falls below the
specified level.
The light should go out after starting the
engine and fully releasing the parking
brake, if the fluid level in the brake fluid
reservoir is adequate.
The light also comes on together with the
ABS warning light when the rear brake
force control function (proportioning valve
