Braking ▼ Braking when a tire is punctured
Do not depress the brake pedal suddenly when a tire is punctured . This could cause a loss of control of the vehicle . Keep driving straight ahead while gradually reducing speed . Then slowly pull off the road to a safe place . ■ Brake System
▼ Two separate circuits
Your vehicle has a dual circuit brake system . Each circuit works diagonally across the vehicle . If one circuit of the brake system should fail , the other half of the system still works . If one circuit fails , the brake pedal will go down much closer to the floor than usual and you will need to press it down much harder . And a much longer distance will be needed to stop the vehicle .
▼ Brake booster
The brake booster uses vacuum pump system to assist braking force . Do not turn off the engine while driving because that will turn off the brake booster , resulting in poor braking power .
The brakes will continue to work even when the brake booster completely stops functioning . If this happens , however , you will have to depress the pedal much harder than normal and the braking distance will increase . ▼ Supplemental booster function when vacuum pressure fails
While the ignition switch is turned “ ON ” and the engine is running , the supplemental booster function operates when the brake booster performance is decreased due to insufficient vacuum boost .
When the brake pedal is depressed while the supplemental booster function is operating , an operation sound and brake pedal vibration may be generated . This is not a malfunction .
▼ Brake assist system WARNING
Do not be overconfident about the brake assist . It is not a system that brings more braking ability to the vehicle beyond its braking capability . Always use the utmost care when driving regarding vehicle speed and safe distance .
