Red Warning Lights
Warning Light 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.
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.
ELECTRONIC BRAKING FORCE DISTRIBUTION (EBD)
FAILURE
The simultaneous turning on of the BRAKE (red) and
(amber) warning lights with the engine on indicates
either a failure of the EBD system or that the system is
not available. In this case, the rear wheels may suddenly
lock and the vehicle may swerve when braking abruptly.
Drive very carefully to the nearest authorized dealer to
have the system inspected immediately.
