brake. Driving with the parking
brake not f ully released can
damage the brakes and tires. The lef t or right turn signal indicator
blinks when you signal a lane change

means one of the turn signal bulbs is

the bulb as soon as possible, since
other drivers cannot see that you are
signaling.
When you press the hazard warning
button, both turn signal indicators
blink. All turn signals on the outside
of the vehicle should f lash. This indicator normally comes on f or
a f ew seconds when you turn the

START (III). If it comes on at any
other time, there is a problem with
theABS.If thishappens,haveyour

this indicator on, your vehicle still
has normal braking ability but no
anti-lock f unction. For more
