Brake System Warning Light
When the ignition is on, the brake system warning light
will come
on
when you
set your parking brake. The light
will stay on if your parking brake doesn't release fully.
If it stays
on
after your parking brake is fully released, it
means you have a brake problem.
Your vehicle's hydraulic brake system is divided into
two parts. If one part isn't working, the other part can
still work and stop you. For good braking, though, you
need both parts working well.
If the warning light comes on, there could be a brake
problem. Have your brake system inspected right away.

This light should come on when you turn the ignition
key to START. If it doesn't come on then, have it fixed
so it will be ready to warn you if there's a problem.
If the light comes on while you are driving, pull off the
road and stop carefully. You may notice that the pedal is
harder to push. Or, the pedal may go closer to the floor.
It may take longer to stop. If the light is still on, or if th
anti-lock brake system warning light is flashing, have
the vehicle towed for service. (See "Anti-Lock Brake
System Warning Light" and "Towing Your Vehicle" in
the Index.)

CAUTION:
Your brake system may not be working properly
if the brake system warning light is on. Driving
with the brake system warning light on can lead
to an accident. If the light is still on or if the
anti-lock brake system warning light is flashing
after you've pulled
off
the road and stopped
carefully, have the vehicle towed for service.
