Brake auto hold (if so equipped) 5-74 Features and controls
5
N00517600364
Your vehicle is equipped with power brakes for more braking force with less brake pedaleffort. Your brakes are designed to operate at full capacity, even if the power assist is not beingused. If the power assist is not being used, the effort needed to press the brake pedal is greater.If you should lose the power assist for some reason, the brakes will still work. If the power brake unit
or either of the two
brake hydraulic systems stops working prop- erly, the rest of the brake system will still work, but the vehicle will not slow down asquickly. You will know this has happened if you find you need to press the brake down farther, orharder when slowing down or stopping, or if the brake warning light and the warning dis- play in the multi-information display comeon.
N00550700124
The disc brakes have an alarm that makes ametallic squeal when the brake pads haveworn down enough to need service. If you hear this sound, have the brake pads replaced at an authorized Mitsubishi Motorsdealer or a repair facility of your choice.
N00592000048
When the vehicle is stopped at traffic lightsetc., the vehicle can be held stationary with the brake auto hold system even if you release your foot from the brake pedal.When the accelerator pedal is depressed, the brakes are released.
CAUTION It is important not to drive the vehicle with your foot resting on the brake pedal when braking is not required. This practice can result in very high brake temperatures, pre- mature lining wear, and possible damage tothe brakes.
Power brakes
WA R N I N G Never coast downhill with the engine OFF. Keep the engine running whenever your vehicle is in motion. If you turn off the engine while driving, the power brake booster will stop working and your brakeswill not work as well. If the power assist is lost or if either brake hydraulic system stops working properly, take your vehicle to an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facil-ity of your choice immediately.
Brake pad wear alarm
WA R N I N G Driving with worn brake pads will make it harder to stop, and can cause an accident.
Brake auto hold
(if so equipped)
WA R N I N G Do not overly rely on the brake auto hold system. On steep slope, depress the brake pedal firmly because the system may not hold the vehicle stationary. Never leave the vehicle while it is being stopped by the brake auto hold system.When leaving the vehicle, apply the park- ing brake and move the selector lever to the “P” (PARK) position. Do not use brake auto hold system when driving on slippery roads. The system maynot hold the vehicle stationary and could result in an accident. NOTE
 While operating the brake auto hold system, you may hear an operation noise to increase braking force when the system detected themovement of the vehicle. This does not indi- cate a malfunction.
