2006 MITSUBISHI COLT parking brake

TECHNICAL FEATURES
GENERAL00-16
BRAKE BOOSTER
9-inch brake booster has been installed. The brake
booster employs a variable amplification ratio mech
-
anism that varies amplifications ratios so that even
small pedal force can provide great breaking force.
PARKING BRAKE

The parking brake is of a mechanical rear-wheel act-
ing type, and its operation utilises a parking brake
lever.

TECHNICAL FEATURES

Employment of the parking brake pedal clears front
centre space to allow a walk through design.
PUSH-ON/PUSH-RELEASE type pedal has been
installed for easier operation.
The parking brake pedal retreat suppression mecha-
nism that restraints the retraction of the brake pedal
during collision has been adopted in order to reduce
the shock to the driver's feet. The mechanism of the
parking brake pedal is basically the same as that of
the brake pedal.

•The
active st ability control syst em (ASC) has the
st ab ility control and t he traction control (TCL)
fun ctio ns. By the integra ted control with th e
ant i-lock b rake system, the system stabilizes th e
ve hicle attitu de and at the same time secures the
drivin g force.
•When the st ability control fun ction dete rmin es
tha t the vehicle is in a dangerou s condition, it
redu ces the e ngine outpu t and a pplies b rake
force to f our wheels indepe ndently to control th e
ve hicle be haviour, avoiding the critical state.
•The tract ion control (TCL) fun ction prevent s the
drivin g wheel slip on a slippery road sur face,
ensurin g easy st artup, an d at the same time,
secure s proper drivin g force and improves ste er
-
in g perfo rmance du ring cornering acce leration.
•Fail-safe functio n assures the security.
•Serviceability imp rovement
•For wiring h arness saving an d secure data com-
municatio n, the CAN* co mmunicatio n has been
ado pted a s a t ool o f commun ication with ano ther
