Your regular brake system may not be worl
....g
properly
if
the anti-lock brake system warning
light is on. Driving with the anti-lock brake
system warning light on can lead to an
accident. After you’ve pulled
off
the road and
stopped carefully, have the vehicle towed for
service.
If
the anti-lock brake system warning light stays on
longer than normal after you’ve started your engine, turn
the ignition
off.
Or,
if
the light comes on and stays on
when you’re 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, or comes on again
while you’re driving, your vehicle needs service. If
the light is on and the regular brake system warning
light isn’t on, you still have brakes, but you don’t have
anti-lock brakes.
The anti-lock brake system warning light should come
on briefly when you turn the ignition key to
ON.
If
the light doesn’t come on then, have it fixed
so
it will be
ready to warn you
if
there is a problem.
Engine Coolant Temperature Gage
This gage shows the
engine coolant
temperature. If the gage
pointer moves to the
H
(red) side, your engine
is too hot.
It means that your engine coolant has overheated and
you should stop your vehicle and turn
off
the engine
as soon as possible.
