Anti-lock brake system

If the ABS light stays illuminated or continues to flash, a
malfunction has been detected. Contact your authorized dealer
as soon as possible. Normal braking is still functional unless the

brake warning light also is illuminated.

Brake system warning light

To confirm the brake system warning light is functional, it will
momentarily illuminate when the vehicle is switched on, to
accessory or Ready to Drive mode.

If it illuminates when you are driving, check that the parking brake is not
engaged. If the parking brake is not engaged, this indicates low brake
fluid level or a brake system malfunction. Have the system checked
immediately by your authorized dealer.

WARNING: Driving a vehicle with the brake system warning
light on is dangerous. A significant decrease in braking

performance may occur. It will take you longer to stop the vehicle.
Have the vehicle checked by your authorized dealer as soon as possible.
Driving extended distances with the parking brake engaged can cause
brake failure and the risk of personal injury.

High voltage battery low or depleted (RTT)

• Amber: Illuminates when the battery level is low. May also be

accompanied by a message suggesting the driver reduce
usage of the climate system.

• Red: Illuminates when the battery level is depleted. The vehicle must

be charged before it will operate. If you are driving when this occurs,
and cannot make it to a charge point, stop the vehicle in a safe place
and have it towed to a charge point.

Charging system (RTT)

Illuminates when the 12–volt battery is not charging properly.
Contact your authorized dealer as soon as possible. This
indicates a problem with the electrical system or a related
component.

Door ajar (RTT)

Displays when the ignition is on and any door is not completely
closed.
