Braking Safety
Always apply the brakes gradually, especially on wet,
slippery or other low traction surfaces. Avoid braking in
a tight curve or hard turn. Braking improperly could
result in loss of control, which could result in serious
injury or death.
Always use the brake pedal when you are stopped on an
incline. Do not hold the FUV using partial throttle or
damage to the motor may occur.
Always allow a sufficient stopping distance so that brakes
can be applied gradually. Practice braking in a safe area to
become familiar with the feel of the FUV brakes before
driving in traffic.
Be careful when braking on slippery surfaces - in wet
conditions, always maintain a greater distance from the
vehicle in front of you.

"KERS"), activated by the KERS Trigger Control on the
