This light will also
come
on when you set your parking brake, and
will
stay
on
if
yourparkingbrakedoesn’treleasefully.
If
it
stays on after your parking
brake is fully released,
it
means you have a
.brake problem.
If thelightcomesonwhiledriving,
pull
off
the road and stop carefully.
You
may
notice that the pedal
is harder
to
push. Or the pedal may go closer
to
thefloor.
It may take
longer
to
stop.
If
the
light is still on,havethevehicle
towed
for service. (See “Towing your vehicle”
in theIndex).
I

if

light
is on. Driving with

is still on after you’ve pulled
off
the road and
stopped carefully, have
the vehicle
towed
for service.

r
With anti-lock, this
light will
go on when you start your engine and may stay
on for a several seconds
or
so.
That’s normal.
If
the
light doesn’t come on, have
if
fixed
so
it will be ready
to
warn you
if
there is a problem.
If
the
light stays on, or comes on when you’re driving, your vehicle needs
service. Unless
the regular brake system warning
light
is also on, you will
still
have brakes, but not anti-lock brakes.
