The brake system is used to transform the force on the brake pedal from the driver to braking force
of all wheels. Then the hydraulic system will distribute the braking force to each wheel. The
vacuum brake booster is used to decrease the force from the pedal and increase the hydraulic
pressure. The parking brake operates by rear wheels and controls the operation manually.
LF620 sedan has two brake systems, namely driving brake system and parking brake system. The
driving brake system is an engine vacuum booster ABS hydraulic brake system. And the parking
brake is to control the rear brake by cable system which utilizes the self-adjusting ratchet and pawl
structure. The ABS is controlled by the hydraulic control unit (HCU) in the hydraulic system, and
only works when the vehicle speed sensor detects that the wheels are locked.
