Brakes
Brake System Design
The diagonally-separated dual
service brake system is designed
so half the system will still
provide braking action if the
other half fails.
Stopping the car after losing the brake fluid from half the system
will require more pedal pressure and pedal travel than normal.
Also, the distance required to stop will be longer using only half
the brake system. If the brakes fail suddenly, downshift to a lower
gear for increased engine braking, and pull off the road as soon as
possible.
^W ARNING
• It is dangerous to drive your car with a problem in either the
brake electrical or hydraulic system s; have your dealer check
both system s if you suspect brake trouble.
• Do not ride the brakes. In other words, don't put your foot on
the brake pedal unless you intend to brake. This causes ex
cessive brake wear and can damage, or lead to loss of the
brakes through overheating. Your brake lights may also confuse
drivers behind you.
• Driving through deep water may affect the brakes. Check their
effectiveness by pressing the brake pedal gently. If the car does
not slow down at the normal rate, continue gently applying the
brakes, while maintaining a safe speed, until they dry out and
normal performance returns.
Brake Wear
Both front and rear brakes should be inspected for wear at the in
tervals shown in the maintenance schedule on page 57.
When the brakes require relining, use only genuine Honda replace
ment parts or their equivalent.
