CAUTION
Driving with the brake warning
light on can lead to an accident.
Have the brakes checked imme-
diately if the brake warning
light stays on.
Have the vehicle towed for
service.
If the Brake System Warning Light
and the Antilock Brake System
Warning Light both turn on and
you hear a ten second chime,
there may be a problem with the
dynamic rear proportioning
system.
See "Dynamic Rear Proportioning"
under "Brakes" in Section 3 for
more information.
Antilock Brake System Warning
Light
This light should come on briefly
as you start your engine, as a check
to show you it is working properly.
If it doesn't come on, then have it
fixed so it will be ready to warn
you if there is a problem.
If it stays on or comes on while
you are driving, there may be a
problem with this system.
A text message may also appear in
the Driver Information Center
display.
See "Driver Information Center
Messages" later in this section for
more information.
Stop as soon as possible and turn
the ignition off. Then start the
engine to reset the system.
If the light still stays on, or if it
comes on again while you're
driving, your vehicle needs service.
Until you get it fixed, the brakes
will still work, but without the
antilock feature.
CAUTION
Driving with any brake warning
light on can lead to an accident.
Have the brakes checked imme-
diately if any brake warning
light stays on.
