STARTING AND OPERATING

(4) If the vehicle is equipped with a
brake booster, the brake boosting
force is lost after the brake pedal is
depressed once or twice while the
engine is off. If this occurs, the
brake will require greater force than
usual.
This is especially important when
the vehicle is being towed.

(5) Check the brake system while driv-
ing at a low speed immediately
after starting, especially when the
brakes are wet, to confirm that it
works normally.
A film of water can form on the
brake discs or brake drums and
prevent normal functioning after
driving in heavy rain or through
large puddles, or after the vehicle is
washed. If this occurs, repeatedly
tap the brake pedal lightly while
driving to dry out the brakes.
(6) It is important to take advantage of
the braking power of the engine by
shifting to a lower gear while driving
on steep downhill roads in order to
prevent the brakes from overheat-
ing.
(7) Periodically confirm that the brake
warning lamp functions properly.
(8) With new brake linings, if possible,
avoid applying the brakes fully dur-
ing the first 200 km (124 miles) of
driving.
