STARTING AND OPERATING 2–13
BRAKE
The regular braking system is designed for
braking performance under a wide range of
driving conditions even when the vehicle is
loaded to its full rated vehicle load capacity.
Your vehicle is equipped with a diagonally
split front and rear dual circuit braking sys-
tem. Disc brakes are fitted to the front and
drum brakes are fitted to the rear.
If one brake circuit should fail, the vehicle
can still be stopped with the second remain-
ing circuit. If this happens, the brake pedal
must be fully depressed with greater pedal
pressure. The braking distance is increased.
Have the braking system checked and re-
paired by a Daewoo Dealer or Daewoo Au-
thorized Service Operation before continu-
ing your journey.
If the brake pedal can be pressed further
than normal, it may be due to a lack of ad-
justment of the rear drum brakes. To find out
if this is the case, drive backward and for-
ward a few times, applying the brakes firmly
when going in each direction.
Consult your Daewoo Dealer if the pedal
height does not return to normal, or there is
a rapid increase in pedal travel. This could
be a sign of brake trouble.
WARNING
Brakes can have temporary loss of
performance due to overheating.
• On descents shift to a low gear.
• Do not continually apply brakes.
CAUTION
Brake lining and pad can wear pre-
maturely.
Do not drive with foot resting on
brake pedal.
WARNING
Brakes can have temporary loss of
performance due to wet brake com-
ponents.
• After checking to the rear for other
vehicles, lightly apply brakes for
performance loss.
• Keep safe forward speed.
• Keep plenty of space ahead, to rear
and to sides.
• Lightly apply brakes until perfor-
mance is normal.
• Always apply this procedure after
driving through water deep
enough to wet brake components
or having the vehicle washed, to
help reduce the risk of personal
injury.
