Flexible Service System (FSS)
Brake Warning Lamp
The FSS permits a flexible service
schedule that is directly related to the
operating conditions of the vehicle.
The brake warning lamp will come on:
•
when there is insufficient brake
fluid in the reservoir (engine
running and parking brake
released)
The symbol
or
appears in
the speedometer display field prior to
the next suggested service.
Depending on operating conditions
throughout the year, the next service is
calculated and displayed in days or
distance remaining.
•
when the parking brake is set
(engine running)
If you find that the minimum mark on
the brake fluid reservoir is reached,
have the brake system checked for
brake pad thickness and leaks.
