All the parts of the brake system are critical
to safety. We recommend you to have the
vehicle checked at regular intervals according
to the service booklet.
The service brake is divided into two brake
circuits. And your vehicle is equipped with
power brakes. If one brake circuit fails, the
other is available to stop the vehicle. If your
vehicle should lose the power assist for some
reason, the brakes will still work. In these sit-
uations, even if the brake pedal moves down
to the very end of its possible stroke or resists
being depressed, keep depressing the brake
pedal down harder and further than usual;
stop driving as soon as possible and have the
brake system repaired.
The brake warning lamp illuminates to indi-
cate a fault in the braking system. A warning
is also displayed on the multi information dis-
play. Refer to “Brake warning lamp” and
“Brake warning display” on page 6-50, 6-53.
Check the brake system while driving at a
low speed immediately after starting, espe-
cially when the brakes are wet, to confirm
they work normally.
A film of water can be formed on the brake
discs and prevent normal braking after driv-
ing in heavy rain or through large puddles, or
after the vehicle is washed. If this occurs, dry
the brakes out by driving slowly while lightly
depressing the brake pedal.
NOTE
 If the operation mode is put in OFF, while
the AVAS has been turned off, and the opera-
tion mode is put in ON once again, the AVAS
is activated.

If the AVAS OFF switch is continuously
pressed after the AVAS is turned off, the
incorrect operation prevention function
works and then the system returns to turning
on.

CAUTION
 Avoid driving habits that cause heavy brak-
ing and never “ride” the brakes by resting
your foot on the brake pedal while driving.
It causes brake overheating and fade.

WARNING
 Do not turn off the Plug-in Hybrid EV
System while your vehicle is in motion. If
you turn off the Plug-in Hybrid EV Sys-
tem while driving, the power assistance
for the braking system will stop working
and your brakes will not work effectively.
 If the power assist is lost or if either brake
hydraulic system stops working properly,
have your vehicle checked immediately.

WARNING
 Do not leave any objects near the brake
pedal or let a floor mat slide under it;
doing so could prevent the full pedal
stroke that would be necessary in an
emergency. Make sure that the pedal can
be operated freely at all times. Make sure
the floor mat is securely held in place.
CAUTION
 Put the select position to “B” (REGENERA-
TIVE BRAKE) according to the grade of the
slope and vehicle speed, and use the service
brake in combination with the regenerative
brake as required.
