{Warning
The brake system might not be
working properly if the brake
system warning light is on.
Driving with the brake system
warning light on can lead to a
crash. If the light is still on after
the vehicle has been pulled off
the road and carefully stopped,
have the vehicle towed for
service.
Electric Parking Brake
Light
This status light comes on when the
parking brake is applied. If the light
flashes and stays on after theparking brake is released, or while
driving, there is a problem with the
electric parking brake system.
If the light does not come on,
or remains flashing, see your dealer.
See
Electric Parking Brake on
page 9-31 for more information.
Service Electric Parking
Brake Light
The service electric parking brake
light should come on briefly when
the vehicle is in ON/RUN. If it does
not come on, have the vehicle
serviced by your dealer. If this light stays on, there is a
problem with a system on the
vehicle that is causing the parking
brake system to work at a reduced
level. The vehicle can still be driven,
but should be taken to a dealer as
soon as possible. See
Electric
Parking Brake on page 9-31. If a
message displays in the Driver

light is on, but the regular brake
system warning light is not on, the
antilock brakes are not working
properly, but the regular brakes are still functioning. Have the vehicle
serviced right away. If both brake
lights are on, the vehicle does not
have antilock brakes, and there is a
problem with the regular brakes as
well. Have the vehicle towed for
service. See
Towing the Vehicle on
page 10-75.

Immediately:
The vehicle starts
charging as soon as it is connected
to an electrical outlet. See Plug-In
Charging on page 9-47.

the week. Charging begins at the
start time and is complete by the
departure time only if sufficient time
is allowed after the charge cord is
plugged in.
