The brake pedal
Do not place thick MATS or other foreign
objects near the brake pedal. This will affect the
travel of the brake pedal in an emergency.
Ensure that the brake pedal is fully operational
under all circumstances.
Do not rest your foot on the brake pedal when
braking is not required. Otherwise, brake
temperature will rise, brake disc premature wear,
or even damage the brake.
Brake friction pad
Disc brakes with warning devices emit a squeal
of metal friction when the brake pads wear out
to the limit. If you hear this sound, go to
Authorised dealership as soon as possible to
replace the new brake friction pad.
Emergency braking should be avoided as far as
possible during the first 200km of driving after
replacement of the friction pad.
Warning
Do not drive a vehicle with worn brake pads,
which can make braking difficult and may
lead to accidents

Warning lights
When parking brake is applied or the brake fluid
level is below the specified level, the brake
warning light will be on. Before driving, the
parking brake should be completely released
and the brake warning lights should be off. If
the brake warning lights come on while the
vehicle is in motion, this means that the brake is
less effective. Park the vehicle in a safe place
by:
●
if the brake pedal is pressed, when the
braking effect is weakened, press the brake
pedal with more force.
