When Driving

Brake

Brake System

Foot Brake

This vehicle has power-assisted brakes

that adjust automatically through normal

use.

Should power-assist fail, you can stop by

applying greater force than normal to the

brake pedal. But the distance required to

stop will be greater than usual.

WARNING

Do not coast with the engine stalled or

turned o ,  nd a safe place to stop:

Coasting with the engine stalled or

turned o is dangerous. Braking will

require more e ort, and the brake's

power-assist could be depleted if

you pump the brake. This will cause

longer stopping distances or even an

accident.

Shift to a lower gear when going down

steep hills:

Driving with your foot continuously on

the brake pedal or steadily applying

the brakes for long distances is

dangerous. This causes overheated

brakes, resulting in longer stopping

distances or even total brake failure.

This could cause loss of vehicle

control and a serious accident. Avoid

continuous application of the brakes.

Dry o brakes that have become

wet by driving slowly, releasing the

accelerator pedal and lightly applying

the brakes several times until the brake

performance returns to normal:

Driving with wet brakes is dangerous.

Increased stopping distance or the

vehicle pulling to one side when

braking could result in a serious

accident. Light braking will indicate

whether the brakes have been a ected.

CAUTION

¾

Do not drive with your foot held on the

clutch pedal or brake pedal, or hold

the clutch pedal depressed halfway

unnecessarily. Doing so could result in

the following:

¾

The clutch and brake parts will wear

out more quickly.

¾

The brakes can overheat and

adversely a ect brake performance.

¾

Always depress the brake pedal with

the right foot. Applying the brakes with

the unaccustomed left foot could slow

your reaction time to an emergency

situation resulting in insu cient braking

operation.



¾

Wear shoes appropriate for driving in

order to avoid your shoe contacting

the brake pedal when depressing the

accelerator pedal.
