Power brakes
Your vehicle has power-assisted
brakes that adjust automatically
through normal usage.
In the event that the power-assisted
brakes lose power because of a
stalled engine or some other reason,
you can still stop your vehicle by
applying greater force to the brake
pedal than you normally would. The
stopping distance, however, will be
longer.
When the engine is not running, the
reserve brake power is partially
depleted each time the brake pedal
is applied. Do not pump the brake
pedal when the power assist has
been interrupted.
Pump the brake pedal only when
necessary to maintain steering con-
trol on slippery surfaces.
BRAKE SYSTEM
(Continued)
Always test your brakes in
this fashion after driving
through deep water. To dry the
brakes, apply them lightly
whilst maintaining a safe for-
ward speed until brake per-
formance returns to normal.
• Always, confirm the position
of the brake and accelerator
pedal before driving. If you
don’t check the position of the
accelerator and brake pedal
before driving,
you may
depress the accelerator
instead of the brake pedal. It
may cause a serious accident.
WARNING
- Brakes
• Do not drive with your foot
resting on the brake pedal.
This will create abnormal high
brake temperatures, excessive
brake lining and pad wear, and
increased stopping distances.
• When descending a long or
steep hill, shift to a lower gear
and avoid continuous applica-
tion of the brakes. Continuous
brake application will cause
the brakes to overheat and
could result in a temporary
loss of braking performance.
• Wet brakes may impair the
vehicle’s ability to safely slow
down;
the vehicle may also
pull to one side when the
brakes are applied. Applying
the brakes lightly will indicate
whether they have been
affected in this way.
