The hydraulic brake system is made up of two
independent hydraulic circuits. One hydraulic
circuit supplies fluid to the front disc brakes and
the other hydraulic circuit supplies fluid to the
rear disc brakes. These two circuits are supplied
by a common hydraulic brake fluid reservoir,
with a fluid level sensor.

If Brakes Do Not Grip Well or Pedal is
“Low”
*
[DR23250( ALL)11/89]
If during normal operation the brake pedal
seems “low”, it may indicate the need for a
brake system inspection and/or service. You
should have your brakes checked as soon as
possible.

[DR23300( ALL)02/95]
Occasional brake squeal during light to moderate
stops does not affect the function of the brake
system and is normal. However, if the squeal
becomes annoyingly loud or increases
significantly in frequency of occurrence, return
the vehicle to your dealer for inspection.
