or Brake warning light
This light functions for both the parking
brake and the foot brake systems.
Parking brake indicator (models not
equipped with electronic parking brake
system):
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the light illuminates when the
parking brake is applied.
Low brake fluid warning light:
When the ignition switch is placed in the
ON position, the brake warning light
illuminates, and then turns off (models
equipped with electronic parking brake
system). If the light illuminates while the
engine is running with the parking brake
not applied, stop the vehicle and perform
the following:
1. Check the brake fluid level. If brake
fluid is necessary, add fluid and have
the system checked. It is recom-
mended you have this service per-
formed by a NISSAN dealer. (See
“Brake and clutch fluid” (P.8-9).)
2. If the brake fluid level is correct, have
the warning system checked. It is
recommended you have this service
performed by a NISSAN dealer.
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning
indicator:
When the parking brake is released and
the brake fluid level is sufficient, if both
the brake warning light and the Anti-lock
Braking System (ABS) warning light illu-
minate, it may indicate the ABS is not
functioning properly. Have the brake
system checked, and if necessary re-
paired. It is recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service. (See “Anti-
lock Braking System (ABS) warning light”
(P.2-13).)
WARNING
. Your brake system may not be
working properly if the warning
light is on. Driving could be dan-
gerous. If you judge it to be safe,
drive carefully to the nearest
service station for repairs. Other-
wise, have your vehicle towed
because driving it could be dan-
gerous.
. Pressing the brake pedal with the
engine stopped and/or low brake
fluid level may increase your
stopping distance and braking
will require greater pedal effort
as well as pedal travel.
