A PARK BRAKE SET message will be displayed on the
Driver Information Center (DIC) while the parking
brake is set and the vehicle is moving. The message
will not come on
if
the transaxle is in PARK (P).
If the light comes on while you are driving, pull
off
the
road and stop carefully. You may notice that the pedal is
harder
to
push. Or, the pedal may go closer to the
floor. It may take longer
to
stop. If the light is still on,
have the vehicle towed for service. See
Towing
Your Vehicle
on
page
4-33.
Your brake system may not be working
properly
if the brake system warning light is
on. Driving with the brake system warning light
on can lead to an accident.
If
the light is still
on after you’ve pulled
off
the road and stopped
carefully, have the vehicle towed for service.
Anti-Lock Brake System Warning
Light
With the anti-lock brake
system, the light(s) will
come on when your engine
is started and may stay
on for several seconds.
That’s normal.
If the light stays on, turn the ignition to
OFF.
Or,
if
the
light comes 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 regular brake system warning
light isn’t on, you still have brakes, but you don’t have
anti-lock brakes.
If
the regular brake system warning
light is also on, you don’t have anti-lock brakes
and there’s a problem with your regular brakes. See
Brake
System
Warning Light
on
page
3-35
earlier in this
section.
The anti-lock brake system warning light will come on
briefly when you turn the ignition key to
ON.
This is
normal.
If
the light doesn’t come on then, have it fixed
so
it will be ready to warn you
if
there is a problem.
