NOTE
l
Depressing the brake pedal repeat-
edly may turn on the brake warn-
ing lamp and brake warning buz-
zer. It is normal if the lamp goes
out and the buzzer stops sounding
after a few seconds.
CAUTION
l
In the situations listed below,
brake performance may be com-
promised or the vehicle may be-
come unstable if brakes are ap-
plied suddenly; consequently,
avoid driving at high speeds or
applying the brakes suddenly.
Furthermore,
the
vehicle
should be brought to a stop in a
safe location and to have it
checked.
• The brake warning lamp
does not illuminate when
the parking brake is applied
or does not turn off when
the parking brake is re-
leased.
• The brake warning lamp re-
mains illuminated during
driving.
• The brake warning lamp
and ABS warning lamp are
both illuminated at the
same time. Refer to “ABS
warning lamp” on page
5-14.
• The brake warning buzzer
will not stop sounding.
CAUTION
l
The vehicle should be brought
to a halt in the following man-
ner when brake performance
has deteriorated.
• Depress the brake pedal
harder than usual.
Even if the brake pedal
moves down to the very end
of its possible stroke, keep it
pressed down hard.
• Should the brakes fail, use
regenerative braking to re-
duce your speed and careful-
ly pull the parking brake lev-
er.
Depress the brake pedal to
operate the stop lamp to
alert the vehicles behind you.
NOTE
l
Operation sounds of the brake elec-
tric vacuum pump may be heard
from the electric motor unit room
just after the electric motor switch
has been turned “ON” or when the
brake pedal is depressed.
This occurs when the brake elec-
tric vacuum pump is operating nor-
mally and does not indicate faulty
operation.
Auxiliary battery charge warn-
ing lamp
E00502701219
This warning lamp will illuminate when
there is a fault with the charging system
of the auxiliary battery.
Normally, when the electric motor
switch is turned to the “ON” position,
this warning lamp will illuminate. When
the electric motor unit is started, the
lamp goes out.
CAUTION
l
If it illuminates while the ready
indicator is illuminated, there is
a problem in the charging sys-
tem. In this case, immediately
park your vehicle in a safe
place and we recommend you
to have it checked.

ing lamp will flash 16 times and, at the
same time, the buzzer will sound 16
times to notify the driver that a door is
ajar.
