Brake System
Power Brakes
Your vehicle has power-assisted brakes that adjust
automatically through normal usage.
In the event that brake system power assist is lost
because of a stalled engine or some other reason, you
can still stop your vehicle by applying greater force to
the brake pedal than you normally would. The stopping
distance, however, will be longer.
When the engine is not running, the reserve brake
power is partially depleted each time the brake pedal is
depressed. Do not pump the brake pedal when the
power assist has been interrupted, except when neces-
sary to maintain steering control on slippery surfaces.
Anti Lock Brakes (ABS) (if equipped)
The anti-lock brake system is designed to prevent lock-
up of the wheels during sudden braking or braking on
slippery surfaces. Compared to a conventional brake
system, the anti-lock brake system provides greater
steering control during braking in such situations.
