Brakes
Observe the following guidelines:
Avoid excessively hard braking and down-
z
shifting.
► Sudden braking can reduce the vehicle's
stability.
► Where possible, reduce speed before
turning; otherwise you risk sliding out.
Exercise caution on low traction surfaces.
z
The tyres slip more easily on such surfaces,
►
and braking distances are longer.
Avoid continuous braking.
z
► Repeated braking, such as when
descending long, steep slopes can
seriously overheat the brakes, reducing
their effectiveness.Use engine braking with
intermittent use of the brakes to reduce
speed.
For full braking effectiveness, operate both
z
the front and rear brakes together.
#
Combi Brake
Your vehicle is equipped with a brake system
that distributes the braking force between the
front and rear brakes.
The distribution of the braking force applied to
the front and rear brakes when operating the
lever only and when operating the pedal only is
different.
For full braking effectiveness, operate both the
front and rear brakes together.
