76 Instruments and Controls
Brake Low Vacuum Warning
Light
This light should come on briefly
when the engine control switch is
turned to the ON position, and then
should go out after the engine is
started. If the light does not come
on when the engine control switch is
turned to ON, it could indicate a
burned out bulb or a blown fuse.
Have the system repaired if the light
does not come on during this check.
The warning light and buzzer will
come on simultaneously when the
brake booster’s vacuum or pressure
becomes insufficient either during
driving or when the engine control
switch is in the ON position, or when
there is an abnormality in the
charging system, such as an
alternator malfunction or loosening
or splitting of the fan belt or whenever the hydraulic brake
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.

Jump Starting
Jump Starting - North
America
When the Battery is
Discharged
Use a jumper cable (sold
separately) and the battery of
another vehicle to start the engine in
the following sequence.
{Danger
Follow the precautions listed in
the jump starting instructions
when working on or near the
battery. Personal injury
(particularly to eyes) or property
damage may result from battery
explosion, battery fluid or
electrical (short circuit) burns.
If battery fluid should come in
contact with an eye, immediately
wash away using a large amount
of water and continue washing for(Continued)
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)

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

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. After Towing
After towing the vehicle, block the
rear wheels and install axle shafts
or driveshaft.
