WARNING
Driving with brakes in bad condition could re-

●
If the brake warning lamp does not turn
off or if it lights up when driving, the brake
fluid level in the reservoir is too low or there
is a fault in the brake system. Obtain profes-
sional assistance immediately ››› page 281,
Checking the brake fluid level.
●
If the brake warning lamp lights up to-
gether with the ABS warning lamp , the
ABS regulation could be malfunctioning. As a
result, the rear wheels can lock relatively
easily when braking. If the rear wheels lock
this could result in loss of vehicle control! If
possible, reduce your speed and drive care-
fully to a specialised workshop close by to
check the brake system. During the following
journey, avoid sudden braking and manoeu-
vres.
●
If the ABS warning lamp does not go out
or if it lights up while driving, the ABS is not
working properly. The vehicle can only be
stopped using normal braking without ABS.
The protection provided by the ABS is not
available. Visit a specialised workshop as
soon as possible.
