Parking Brake and Brake System
Indicator
This indicator has two functions:
It comes on when you turn the
1.
ignition switch ON (II). It is a
reminder to check the parking
brake. Driving with the parking
brake not fully released can
damage the brakes and tires.
2. If it remains lit after you have fully
released the parking brake while
the engine is running, or if it
comes on while driving, there
could be a problem with the brake
system. For more information, see
page 202 .
Anti-lock Brake System
(ABS) Indicator
If equipped
This indicator normally comes on for
a few seconds when you turn the
ignition switch to ON (II), and when
the ignition switch is turned to
START (III). If it comes on at any
other time, there is a problem with
the ABS. If this happens, have your
vehicle checked at a dealer. With
this indicator on, your vehicle still
has normal braking ability but no
anti-lock function. For more
information, see page 147
Instrument Panel Indicators
High Beam Indicator
This indicator comes on with the
high beam headlights. For more
information, see page

comes on with reduced brightness
when the Daytime Running Lights

turn the ignition switch to ON (II)
with the headlight switch off and the
parking brake set. It should go off if
you turn on the headlights or release
the parking brake. If it comes on at
any other time, it means there is a
problem with the DRL. There may
also be a problem with the high
beam headlights.
