GENERAL
BASIC BRAKE SYSTEM35A-2
GENERALM2350000100956
Brake systems with higher reliability and durability
have achieved distinguished braking performance.
FEATURES
.
IMPROVEMENT OF BRAKING PERFOR-
MANCE
•A 10-inch single brake booster with the variable
boost ratio mechanism has been used to assure
maximum braking force with less pedal pressure
in case of emergency.
•In addition to the 10-inch single brake booster, a
small and long stroke-type master cylinder has
been adopted to achieve downsizing and secure
assist force.
•15-inch or 16-inch ventilated disc brakes have
been adopted for the front.
•8-inch leading trailing-type drum brake, 14-inch
or 16-inch solid disc brake has been adopted for
the rear.
.
IMPROVEMENT IN SAFETY
•The 4-wheel anti-lock brake system (4ABS) has
been installed to prevent slippage resulting from
the wheel lock and assure stable vehicle posture
and driveability.
•A rear wheel early lock-prevention proportioning
valve has been used.
•Electronic control braking force distribution sys-
tem (EBD) has been adopted to assure the maxi-
mum braking force independently of the
passenger's position in the vehicle. with ABS>
•X-type piping of brake lines have been adopted
for the front and rear wheels.
•Audible wear indicators are used on the front and
rear brake pads to warn the driver of wear limit.
.
SERVICE QUALITY IMPROVEMENTS
•Diagnostic function has been adopted to ABS for
easier inspection.
•Brake fluid reservoir, master cylinder, and brake
booster have been integrated for downsizing and
better serviceability.

FRONT BRAKEM2350003000602
Brakes with the following specifications have been
adopted for the front brakes.
•The 1-piston ventilate disc brake (V5-S57 cles with 16-inch wheel> or V6-S57 with 18-inch wheel>) has been adopted.
•An audible wear indicator that informs the driver
of application limit has been adopted onto the
front brake LH pads.
•The outer disc type brake disc which can be tight-
ened together with the wheel has been intro-
duced for better serviceability.

CONSTRUCTION DESCRIPTION
BASIC BRAKE SYSTEM35A-9
REAR BRAKEM2350004000616

8-inch leading trailing-type drum brakes have been
adopted for the rear brakes in order to provide stable
braking force at all times both when moving forward
and reverse.

Brakes with the following specifications have been
adopted for the rear.
•The 1-piston solid disc brake (S4-S35 with 16-inch wheel> or S6-S35 18-inch wheel>) has been adopted.
*
•An audible wear indicator that informs the driver
of application limit has been adopted onto the

•The outer disc type brake disc which can be tight-
ened together with the wheel has been intro-
duced for better serviceability.
