Parking Brake/Low Brake Fluid Lamp
The lamp illuminates when:
• Parking brake is engaged
• Brake fluid level is low
If the lamp illuminates while driving, do the following:
• Check if the parking brake is engaged. If yes, disengage it
• Check if brake fluid level is low. If yes, top-up brake fluid (DOT 3) to the required
level
If the brake lamp still continues to illuminate, immediately get the vehicle checked at
an Authorized Mahindra Dealer.
Clean the top of the brake fluid reservoir before removing the cap. Make sure
no dirt, impurities or other items fall into the reservoir. Do not leave the cap off
for more than a few minutes. Any contaminants, impurities or moisture in the
brake fluid can affect brake operation, resulting in an accident.
If the brake warning lamp comes ON while driving, the brake system might not
be working properly. The pedal might be harder to operate or might go closer
to the floor and it can take longer to stop. Pull off the road carefully and stop
the vehicle. Contact the nearest Authorized Mahindra Dealer for checks or
repairs.
Driving the vehicle with the brake warning lamp ON or when you suspect brake
trouble is very dangerous and could result in serious injuries. Contact an
Authorized Mahindra Dealer for checks or repairs.
