Useful advice for emergencies
Depress the brake pedal harder than usual, down-
shift to use engine braking and activate exhaust
braking to stop the vehicle. Apply the parking brake
when necessary. After the vehicle has been brought
into a stop, check parts, then call an authorized
dealer.
<Other than FK61F>
In the event of a fault in the brake lines, the result-
ing drop in air pressure may make it impossible to
release the parking brake using the parking control
valve. If this occurs, you can release the parking
brake using the following method to prepare the
vehicle for towing by a professional towing service.
When braking is sluggish
WARNING
•
Activating the parking brake while driving
could cause the vehicle to topple over.
•
The brake system is of a dual circuit
design, one circuit for the front wheels and
the other for the rear wheels. Even if one
circuit fails, you can stop the vehicle with
the other intact circuit. However, under
these circumstances, braking power is
very much reduced. Never continue driv-
ing with one circuit inoperative, as it is
very dangerous.
If parking brake cannot be released
normally
WARNING
•
Remember that the service brakes do not
function. Be sure to chock all the wheels
before releasing the parking brake to pre-
vent any movement of the vehicle which
could be dangerous.
•
Avoid releasing the parking brake unless
the vehicle is on level ground.
