This function is active at speeds from approx.
90 mph (150 km/h) down to 3 mph (5 km/h).
When braking at speeds outside of this range or
during harder braking, the hydraulic brake system
is used.
Cleaning the brake discs
Coatings of dirt and water on the brake discs
may result in delayed brake function. This delay is
minimized by cleaning the brake linings.
Cleaning the brake pads is advisable in wet
weather, prior to long-term parking, and after the
vehicle has been washed. Do this by braking gen-
tly for a short period while the vehicle is moving.
Driving on wet or salted roads
Prolonged driving on wet or salted roads can
affect brake function and increase stopping dis-
tance. Be sure to keep a safe distance to the
vehicle ahead when driving under these condi-
tions.

of the brake pads can be checked by raising the
vehicle and performing a visual inspection of the
brake pads.

the jack and the attachment bar on the
vehicle.
