Your vehicle is equipped with a dual
diagonal braking system. This means
you still have braking on two wheels
even if one of the braking systems
should fail.
With only one of the braking systems
working, more than normal pedal
travel and greater pedal pressure are
required to stop the vehicle.
Also, the vehicle will not stop in as
short a distance with only a portion
of the brake system working.
If the brakes fail whilst you are driv-
ing, shift to a lower gear for addition-
al engine braking and stop the vehi-
cle as soon as it is safe to do so.
