your vision. You could hit another vehicle or go off the road. Check your
washes fluid level often.
NOTICE:
When using concentrated washer fluid, follow the
manufacturer’s instructions for adding water.
Don’t mix water with ready-to-use washer fluid. Water can

to freeze and damage your washer fluid
tank and other parts of the washer system.
Also, water
doesn’t clean as well as washer fluid.

This allows for expansion, which could damage the tank
if it is
completely full.
Don’t use radiator antifreeze in your windshield washer. It

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Brake System Warning Light
Your vehicle hydraulic brake system is divided into two parts. If one part
isn’t working, the other part can still work and stop you. For good braking,
though, you need both parts working well.
Your vehicle also has rear-wheel or four-wheel anti-lock brakes. See \
“Anti-Lock Brakes” in the Index.
If the warning light comes on, there could
be a brake problem with either your regular or rear-wheel anti\
-lock brakes, or both. Have your brake system inspected right away.
This light should come on as you start the vehicle.
If it doesn’t come on
then, have it fixed
so it will be ready to warn you if there’s a problem.
If the light comes on while you are driving, pull off the road and stop
carefully. You may notice that the pedal
is harder to push. Or, the pedal may
go closer to the floor. It may take longer to stop.
If the light is still on, have
the vehicle towed for service. (See “Towing Your Vehicle” in the Index.)
The brake system warning light
will also come on when you set your
parking brake, and it will stay on
if your parking brake doesn’t release fully.
If it stays on after your parking brake is fully released, it means you have a
brake problem.

With anti-lock, this light will go on when you start your engine and may
stay on for several seconds. That’s normal. If the light doesn’t come \

If the light stays on, or comes on when you’re driving, your vehic\
le needs
service.
If the regular brake system warning light isn’t on, you still \
have
brakes, but you don’t have anti-lock brakes.
If the regular brake system
warning light is also on, you don’t have anti-lock brakes and there’s a
problem with your regular brakes. See “Brake System Warning Light”
earlier in this part.
