is no resistance from the brake pedal, stop
immediately in a safe plac e. If necessary downshift
the gears.
If the brake system indicator and ABS indicator come
on simultaneously, the elec tronic brake distribution
system is not working. Th is can result in vehicle
instability under sudden braking.
Have your vehicle inspecte d by a dealer immediately.

time when the Brake System Indicator (Amber) comes

Avoid using the parking brak e and have your vehicle
checked by a dealer immediately. 2 If the Brake System Indicator (Red) Comes
On or Blinks at the Same Time When the

P. 618
If you repeatedly operate th e electric parking brake in
a short period of time, the brake stops operating to
prevent heating of the system and the indicator
blinks.
It returns to its original state in approximately 1
minute.
