Starting and Operating Instructions
Brake Pedal Travel
See your dealer if the brake pedal
does not return to normal height,
or if there is a rapid increase in
pedal travel. This could be a sign
that service is required.

Brake Pedal Free Play
Brake pedal free play must be
1-8 mm.
To check the brake pedal free play,
turn the engine off and press the
brake pedal several times to
deplete the vacuum in the brake
system. Then, when you press the
brake pedal by hand, measure the
distance the pedal moves until
there is a slight resistance.
See your dealer if the brake pedal
free play differs from the norm.
The brakes need to be adjusted.
Antilock Brake System
(If equipped)
The antilock brake system helps
you maintain directional stability
on wet or slippery road surfaces. It
automatically controls the brake
operation when braking.
This occurs only during a brake
application which would have
caused one or more wheels to
lock. You don't have to 'pump' the
brakes. Just hold the brake pedal
down. You may feel or hear it
pulsate, but this is normal.
The antilock brake system can help
you maintain steering control
during a hard brake application.
