WARNING
D Driving with the brake system warning light on is dangerous.
This indicates your brake system may not be working properly. If
the light remains on, have the brakes inspected by a SUBARU
dealer immediately.
D If at all in doubt about whether the brakes are operating prop-
erly, do not drive the vehicle. Have your vehicle towed to the
nearest SUBARU dealer for repair.
This light has the following two functions:
B Parking brake warning
The light comes on with the parking brake applied while the ignition
switch is in the "ON" position. It goes out when the parking brake is
fully released.
B Brake fluid level warning
This light comes on when the brake fluid level has dropped to near
the "MIN" level of the brake fluid reservoir with the ignition switch in
the "ON" position and with the parking brake fully released.
If the brake system warning light should come on while driving (with
the parking brake fully released and with the ignition switch posi-

worn brake pads. Have your vehicle checked by a SUBARU dealer
immediately.
