PRINCIPLE OF
OPERATION
Dual circuit braking system
E71353
WARNING
If a brake circuit fails, you will
notice a softer feel to the brake
pedal. Press the brake pedal firmly
and allow for increased stopping
distances. Stop and have this
checked immediately. Do not
continue your journey.
Your vehicle is fitted with a diagonally
split, dual circuit brake system. If a
brake circuit fails, the other remains
operational.
Disc brakes
E71354
Wet brake discs result in reduced
braking efficiency. Dab the brake
pedal when driving from a car wash
to remove the film of water.
ABS
WARNING
The ABS does not relieve you of
your responsibility to drive with
due care and attention.
The ABS helps you to maintain full
steering and directional stability when
you brake heavily in an emergency,
by preventing the road wheels from
locking. The ABS monitors the speed
of each road wheel and varies the
pressure to each brake. The ABS
optimizes the tyre-to-road adhesion
when you brake heavily.
HINTS ON DRIVING WITH
ABS
E71355
When the ABS is operating, the brake
pedal will pulse. This is normal.
Maintain pressure on the brake
pedal.
