WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL
The following pages consist of warning lights
and messages.
NOTE:
The warning light turns on together with a
dedicated message and/or chime when
applicable. These indications are precau
-
tionary and as such must not be consid
-
ered as exhaustive and/or alternative to
the information contained in the Owner’s
Manual, which you are advised to read
carefully in all cases. Always refer to the
information in this section in the event of
a failure indication.
The failure indicators appearing on the
display are divided into two categories:
very serious and less serious faults.
Serious faults are indicated by a repeated
and prolonged warning cycle. Less serious
faults are indicated by a warning cycle
with a shorter duration. You can stop the
warning cycle in both cases by pushing the
button located on the windshield wiper
stalk. The instrument panel warning light
will stay on until the cause of the failure is
eliminated.

What It Means
What To Do
INSUFFICIENT BRAKE FLUID/ELECTRIC PARK BRAKE ON
This 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 reservoir.
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.
Operation of the Brake Warning Light can be checked
by turning the ignition switch from the OFF position
to the ON/RUN position. The light should illuminate
for approximately four seconds. The light should then
turn off unless the parking brake is applied or a brake
fault is detected. If the light does not illuminate, have
the light inspected by an authorized dealer.
The light also will turn on when the parking brake is
applied with the ignition switch in the ON/RUN
position.
This light shows only that the parking brake is
applied. It does not show the degree of brake
application.
For low brake fluid level, go to an authorized dealer to
have the system checked as soon as possible.
Release the electric park brake, then check that the
warning light has turned off.
If the warning light stays on, contact an authorized
dealer.
