NOTE
•
When the EBA system is activated, the
brake pedal will go down and pressure
in the brake system immediately
increases to the maximum level. You
must maintain full pressure on the
brake pedal in order to utilize the sys-
tem completely. There will be no brak-
ing effect if the pedal is released. EBA
is automatically deactivated when the
brake pedal is released.
•
When the vehicle has been parked for
some time, the brake pedal may sink
more than usual when the engine is
started. This is normal and the pedal
will return to its usual position when it
is released.
