Parking brake

Safe to drive

What it means

The parking brake is applied or not fully released. It can also indicate an electronic parking brake fault.

What to do

Release the parking brake before driving. If the light stays on with the brake released, stop safely and have the system checked.

This is general guidance. Symbols differ between manufacturers, so check your owner's manual, and have a red warning light looked at before you drive on.
