means you still have braking on two
wheels even if one of the dual sys-
tems should fail.

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 while 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.
Driving the vehicle with a warning
light ON is dangerous. If the Parking

illuminates when the parking brake
released, it indicates that the brake
fluid level is low.

ed by an authorized Kia dealer.
