When the warning light comes on while you are driving,
you should drive only as far as the nearest point of
safety and then stop the vehicle. Here is a very
important thing for you to know:
CAUTION:
{
If the air brake system warning light comes on and
the warning tone sounds, the vehicle can stop
suddenly and without further warning. This is
because the parking brake will come on if the
pressure falls below 35 to 45 psi (240 to 310 kPa).
You or others could be injured. If the air brake
system warning light comes on and the warning
tone sounds, stop as soon as you can. You will
not know how quickly the system is losing
pressure, so be aware that the parking brake may
come on suddenly.
Antilock Brake System (ABS)
Warning Light
If the light stays on, or comes on when you are driving,
your vehicle needs service. If the brake or low air warning
light is not on, you still have brakes, but you do not have
the antilock brake feature. If the brake and/or low air
warning light is on, you do not have antilock brakes and
there is a problem with your regular brakes. See Brake
System Warning Light on page 3-31 and Antilock Brake
System (ABS) on page 4-5 for more information.
This light will come on
briefly when you start the
engine, then it will turn
off. This is normal.
