Your vehicle is equipped with power brakes
for more braking force with minimal brake
pedal effort.
Your brakes are designed to operate at full
capacity, even if the power assist is lost.
If the power assist is lost, the effort needed to
press the brake pedal is greater.
If you should loose the power assist for some
reason, the brakes will still work.
If the power brake unit or either of the two
brake hydraulic systems stops working prop-
erly, the rest of the brake system will still
work, but the vehicle will not slow down as
quickly.
You will know this has happened if you find
you need to depress the brake pedal down
further, or harder when slowing down or stop-
ping, or if the brake warning light and the
warning display in the multi-information dis-
play come on.

The disc brakes have an alarm that makes a
metallic squeal when the brake pads have
worn down enough to need service. If you
hear this sound, have the brake pads replaced
at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or
a repair facility of your choice.

The brake assist system is a device assisting
drivers who cannot depress the brake pedal
firmly such as in emergency stop situations
and provides greater braking force.
If the brake pedal is depressed suddenly, the
brakes will be applied with more force than
usual.
CAUTION
It is important not to drive the vehicle with
your foot resting on the brake pedal when
braking is not required. This practice can
result in very high brake temperatures, pre-
mature pad and lining wear, and possible
damage to the brakes.
Power brakes
WARNING
Never coast downhill with the engine OFF.
Keep the engine running whenever your
vehicle is in motion. If you turn off the
engine while driving, the power brake
booster will stop working and your brakes
will not work as well.
If the power assist is lost or if either brake
hydraulic system stops working properly,
take your vehicle to an authorized Mit-
subishi Motors dealer or a repair facility
of your choice immediately.
Brake pad wear alarm
WARNING
Driving with worn brake pads will make it
harder to stop, and can cause an accident.
Brake assist system
CAUTION
The brake assist system is not a device
designed to exercise braking force greater
than its capacity. Make sure to always keep a
sufficient distance between vehicles in front
of you without relying too much on the brake
assist system.
NOTE
Once the brake assist system is operational,
it maintains great braking force even if the
brake pedal is lightly released.
To stop its operation, completely remove
your foot from the brake pedal.
The brake assist system may become opera-
tional when the brake pedal is fully
depressed even if it has not been depressed
suddenly.
