booster (HBB) becomes faulty. The
warning buzzer will stop sounding
when the parking brake is engaged.
On 4500HD and 4500XD, the brake
low vacuum warning light and
warning buzzer should come on to
indicate low vacuum reserve for
brake power assist. At the same
time, the Back up Electric Vacuum
Pump operates.
(5500HD, 5500XD models) When
the HBB pressure is low, and/or the
HBB fluid (Dexron–VI) level is low,
the light and warning buzzer should
come on. Do not use brake fluid in
the brake booster reservoir. Use
only Dexron –VI ATF.
If this happens while driving:
. Do not pump the brakes. The
system is designed to stop the
truck with reserve power assist if
the pedal is held down. This
reserve is greatly reduced each
time you apply and release the
brakes.
. Stopping distance may be
longer. .
You may have to push much
harder on the brake pedal.
. Have the vehicle repaired before
you continue driving.
The buzzer stops when the selector
lever is shifted to the P position.
{Warning
Do not drive while the buzzer
sounds as the brakes are not
operating to their full capacity.
You and others could be seriously
injured.
Antilock Brake System
(ABS) Warning Light
This light comes on briefly when the
engine control switch is turned to
the ON position, and then should go
out after approximately three seconds. If the light does not
come on, have it fixed so it will be
ready to warn if there is a problem.
This warning light comes on
together with the brake system
warning light whenever there is a
problem in the Anti-lock Brake
System (ABS). In this case, the ABS
stops working but the brakes still
function as ordinary service brakes.
{Warning
If this warning light comes on
while driving, immediately stop
your vehicle at a safe place well
clear of traffic and take the
following actions.
1. Stop the engine.
2. Restart the engine. Check ifthe ABS warning light
comes on and then goes
out. If it does, there is no
problem. The ABS operates
normally.

Danger (Continued)
at least 5 minutes. Following this,
you should seek medical
assistance.
When using tools or other metal
objects in the vicinity of the
battery, take care to prevent them
from coming into contact with the
positive terminal. As the vehicle
itself will conduct electricity, any
such contact can result in a
short-circuit and a highly
dangerous electric shock.
A vehicle battery generates
extremely flammable hydrogen
gas. For this reason, operations
producing sparks or requiring the
usage of an open flame must
never be carried out near a
vehicle battery. Failure to observe
this precaution can result in
explosion if the hydrogen gas
ignites. Whenever wiping up
battery fluid, a damp cloth should
be used.(Continued)
Danger (Continued)
Batteries produce explosive
gases, contain corrosive acid,
and supply levels of electrical
current high enough to cause
burns. Therefore, to reduce the
risk of personal injury when
working near a battery:
. Always shield your eyes
and avoid leaning over a
battery whenever possible.
. Do not expose a battery to
open flames or sparks.
. Do not allow battery acid to
contact eyes or skin. Flush
any contacted area with
water immediately and
thoroughly, and get
medical help.
. Follow each step in the
jump starting instructions.
Always stop the engine whenever
the battery is to be inspected. (Continued)
Danger (Continued)
Dilute sulfuric acid is used as the
battery fluid. Special care must be
taken to ensure that this fluid
does not come into contact with
skin, clothing, or metal surfaces.
When disconnecting the cables
from the terminals, start with the
negative terminal. When
connecting them, the negative
terminal should be
reconnected last.
You and others could be seriously
injured.

5. Towing Chain
To prepare a disabled vehicle for
front end towing with all wheels on
the ground, the following steps are
necessary:
.Block the rear wheels of the
disabled vehicle.
. Disconnect the driveshaft at the
rear axle. Secure the driveshaft
to the frame or crossmember.
When towing, disconnect the
driveshaft at the rear axle to ensure
the transmission is not damaged.
The rear end of the driveshaft must
be disconnected and safely secured
if the 80 km (50 mi) or 48 km/h
(30 mph) is exceeded.
Provide wood blocking to prevent
towing chains and bar from coming
into contact with the bumper.
If there is damage or suspected
damage to the rear axle, remove the
axle shafts.
Cover the hub openings to prevent
the loss of lubricant or entry of dirt
or foreign objects.
