position to remind you to fasten
your safety belts. For more
information, refer to theSeating
and safety restraintschapter.
Brake system warning
Momentarily illuminates when the
ignition is turned to the RUN
position to ensure the circuit is
functional. Also illuminates if the
parking brake is engaged. If the
brake warning lamp does not illuminate at these times, seek service
immediately. Illumination after releasing the parking brake indicates low
brake fluid level and the brake system should be inspected immediately.
Anti-lock brake system (ABS) (if equipped)
Momentarily illuminates when the
ignition is turned to the RUN
position to ensure the circuit is
functional. If the light remains on,
continues to flash or fails to
illuminate, have the system serviced immediately. With the ABS light on,
the anti-lock brake system is disabled and normal braking is still effective
unless the brake warning light also remains illuminated with the parking
brake released.
Turn signals
Illuminates when the left or right
turn signal or the hazard lights are
turned on. If one or both of the
indicators stay on continuously or
flash faster, check for a burned-out
turn signal bulb. Refer toBulbsin theMaintenance and carechapter.
