WARNING!

Driving a vehicle with the red brake light on is
dangerous. Part of the brake system may have failed.
It will take longer to stop the vehicle. You could have
a collision. Have the vehicle checked immediately.

Vehicles equipped with the Anti-Lock Brake System

(ABS), are also equipped with Electronic Brake Force

Distribution (EBD). In the event of an EBD failure, the

Brake Warning Light will turn on along with the ABS

Light. Immediate repair to the ABS system is required.
Operation of the Brake Warning Light can be checked by

turning the ignition switch from the OFF position to the

ON/RUN position. The light should illuminate for ap-

proximately two seconds. The light should then turn off

unless the parking brake is applied or a brake fault is

detected. If the light does not illuminate, have the light

inspected by an authorized dealer.

The light also will turn on when the parking brake is

applied with the ignition switch in the ON/RUN posi-

tion.
NOTE:

This light shows only that the parking brake is

applied. It does not show the degree of brake application.
19. Seat Belt Reminder Light

When the ignition switch is first turned to ON/

RUN, this light will turn on for four to eight

seconds as a bulb check. During the bulb check, if

the driver or front passenger’s seat belt is unbuckled, a

chime will sound. After the bulb check or when driving,

if the driver’s seat belt remains unbuckled, the Seat Belt

Reminder Light will illuminate and the chime will sound.

Refer to “Occupant Restraints” in “Things To Know

Before Starting Your Vehicle” for further information.
