WARNING LIGHTS AND
MESSAGES
The warning/indicator lights will illuminate
in the instrument panel together with a dedi-
cated message and/or acoustic signal when
applicable. These indications are indicative
and precautionary and as such must not be
considered as exhaustive and/or alternative
to the information contained in the Owner’s
Manual, which you are advised to read care -
fully in all cases. Always refer to the informa -
tion in this chapter in the event of a failure
indication. All active telltales will display
first if applicable. The system check menu

Red Warning Lights
— Air Bag Warning Light
This warning light will illuminate to indicate
a fault with the air bag, and will turn on for
four to eight seconds as a bulb check when
the ignition is placed in the ON/RUN or ACC/
ON/RUN position. This light will illuminate
with a single chime when a fault with the air
bag has been detected, it will stay on until the fault is cleared. If the light is either not
on during startup, stays on, or turns on while
driving, have the system inspected at an
authorized dealer as soon as possible.
— Brake Warning Light
This warning light monitors various brake
functions, including brake fluid level and
parking brake application. If the brake light
turns on it may indicate that the parking
brake is applied, that the brake fluid level is
low, or that there is a problem with the
anti-lock brake system.
If the light remains on when the parking
brake has been disengaged, and the fluid
level is at the full mark on the master
cylinder reservoir, it indicates a possible
brake hydraulic system malfunction or that a
problem with the Brake Booster has been
detected by the Anti-Lock Brake System
(ABS) / Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
system. In this case, the light will remain on
until the condition has been corrected. If the
problem is related to the brake booster, the
ABS pump will run when applying the brake,
and a brake pedal pulsation may be felt
during each stop.
The dual brake system provides a reserve
braking capacity in the event of a failure to a
portion of the hydraulic system. A leak in
either half of the dual brake system is indi
-
cated by the Brake Warning Light, which will
turn on when the brake fluid level in the
master cylinder has dropped below a speci -
fied level.
The light will remain on until the cause is
corrected.
NOTE:
The light may flash momentarily during
sharp cornering maneuvers, which change
fluid level conditions. The vehicle should
have service performed, and the brake fluid
level checked.
If brake failure is indicated, immediate
repair is necessary.
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.
