Brake System Warning Light
The dual brake system provides a reserve braking
capability in the event of a failure to a portion of
the hydraulic system. The warning light should be
checked frequently to assure that it is operating properly.
This can be done by turning the ignition switch to a point
midway between ON and START. The light should come
on. The red Brake Warning Light will come on when the
ignition is first turned on, and stay on briefly as a bulb
check. If the bulb does not come on during starting, have
the bulb repaired promptly. If the light stays on longer, it
may be an indication that the parking brake has not been
released. If the light remains on when the parking brake
is off it indicates a possible brake hydraulic system
malfunction. Immediate repair is necessary and contin-
ued operation of the vehicle in this condition is danger-
ous.
WARNING!
Driving a vehicle with the brake light on is danger-
ous. Part of the brake system has failed. It will take
longer to stop the vehicle. You could have a accident.
Have the brakes checked immediately.
Airbag Light
This light will come on and remain on for 6 to
8 seconds as a bulb check when the ignition
switch is first turned on. If the bulb is not lit
during starting, have it replaced. If the light
stays on or comes on while driving, have the system
checked by an authorized dealer.
