In the event of brake failure
If service brakes fail to operate while
the vehicle is in motion, you can
make an emergency stop with the
parking brake. The stopping dis-
tance, however, will be much greater
than normal.
Disc brakes wear indicator
When your brake pads are worn and
new pads are required, you will hear
a high-pitched warning sound from
your front/rear brakes or the brake
lining indicator ( ) will illuminate in
the cluster. You may hear this sound
and see this illuminate whenever you
depress the brake pedal.
Please remember that some driving
conditions or climates may cause a
brake squeal when you first apply (or
lightly apply) the brakes. This is nor-
mal and does not indicate a problem
with your brakes.

To engage the parking brake, first

the parking brake lever as far as pos-
sible. In addition it is recommended that
when parking the vehicle on a gradi-
ent, the shift lever should be in a low
gear on manual transmission vehi-
cles.
