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

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

WARNING
Never coast downhill with the engine OFF.

hydraulic system stops working properly,
take your vehicle to an authorized Mit-
subishi Motors dealer or a repair facility
of your choice immediately.

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.
When the brake assist system is in use while
driving, you may feel as if the depressed
brake pedal is soft, the pedal moves in small
motions in conjunction with the operation
noise, or the vehicle body and the steering
wheel vibrate. This occurs when the brake
assist system is operating normally and does
not indicate faulty operation. Continue to
depress the brake pedal.
You may hear an operation noise when the
brake pedal is suddenly or fully depressed
while stationary. This does not indicate a
malfunction and the brake assist system is
operating normally.
