Anti-Lock Brake System Warning Light - Chevrolet 2006 HHR Owner's Manual

When the ignition is on, the brake system warning light
will also come on when you set your parking brake.
The light will stay on if your parking brake does
not release fully. If it stays on after your parking brake is
fully released, it means you have a brake problem.
If the light comes on while you are driving, pull off the
road and stop carefully. Make sure the parking brake is
fully released. 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, have the
vehicle towed for service. See Towing Your Vehicle
on page 4-37.
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
after you have pulled off the road and stopped
carefully, have the vehicle towed for service.
Anti-Lock Brake System
Warning Light
If the light stays on, turn the ignition to OFF. Or, if the
light comes on when you are driving, stop as soon
as possible and turn the ignition off. Then start
the engine again to reset the system. If the light still
stays on after driving at a speed of at least 13 mph
(20 km/h), or comes on again while you are driving,
your vehicle needs service. If the regular brake system
warning light is not on, you still have brakes, but
you do not have anti-lock brakes. If the regular brake
system warning light is also on, you do not have
anti-lock brakes and there is a problem with your regular
brakes. See Brake System Warning Light on page 3-32.
The anti-lock brake system warning light will come
on briefly when you turn the ignition key to RUN. This is
normal. If the light does not come on then, have it
fixed so it will be ready to warn you if there is a problem.
If your vehicle is equipped
with the anti-lock brake
system, the light will come
on when your engine is
started and may stay on
for several seconds.
That is normal.
