Brake system
The b ra kes are an important factor for
traffic sa fety.
To improve effectiveness, do not b ra ke
unnecessarily hard for the first 125 miles
(200 km) after new brake pads have been
fitted.
Brake pad wear must not exceed a
specified limit. Regular maintenance as
detailed in the Service Book let is therefore
of the utm ost importance for traffic safety.
Have worn brake pads replaced by
a workshop.
Tested a nd approved pads give optimum
braking performance.
Brake pads worn to the minimum level
cause grinding noises. You may continue
to drive but ha ve the pads replaced as
soon as possible. To change the pad s,
contact a workshop.
Brake assist

powerful push, the vehic le is a utoma tica lly
brak ed a t full b ra king power in ord er to
achieve the shortest p ossib le brak ing
distance when full-on brak ing occurs
(braking a ssistant).
Maintain steady pressure on the b rake
pedal for as long as full-on brak ing is
to continue. When the brake pedal is
released, the m aximum b ra ke force
