Warning Light

The vehicle brake system consists
of two hydraulic circuits. If one
circuit is not working, the remaining
circuit can still work to stop the
vehicle. For normal braking
performance, both circuits need
to be working.
If the warning light comes on, there
could be a brake problem. Have the
brake system inspected right away.

This light should come on briefly
when ignition key is turned to
ON/RUN. If it does not come on,
have it fixed so it will be ready to
warn if there is a problem.
When the ignition is on, the brake
system warning light also comes on
when the parking brake is set. See
more information. The light stays on
if the parking brake does not fully
release. If it stays on after the
parking brake is fully released,
it means the vehicle has a
brake problem.
If the light comes on while driving,
pull off the road and stop carefully.
The pedal might be harder to push,
or the pedal might go closer to the
floor. It could take longer to stop.
If the light is still on, have the
vehicle towed for service. See
English
The brake system might not be
for
working properly if the brake
system warning light is on.
Driving with the brake system
warning light on can lead to a
crash. If the light is still on after
the vehicle has been pulled off
the road and carefully stopped,
have the vehicle towed
for service.
