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's 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.
Anti-Lock Brake System
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 anti-lock brake feature. If the
BRAKE and/or LOW AIR warning light is on, you do not
have anti-lock brakes and there is a problem with
your regular brakes. See Brake System Warning Light
on page 3-33 and Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)
on page 4-8 for more information.
The anti-lock brake system warning light should come
on briefly when you turn the ignition key to ON. If
the light does not come on then, have it fixed so it will
be ready to warn you if there is a problem.
This light will come on
briefly when you start your
engine, then it will turn
off. This is normal.
