Brake Pads
DO NOT rest your foot on the brake pedal
while driving; this may overheat the brakes,
reduce their efficiency and cause excessive
wear.
Reasonable usage scope of brake friction pair: not less than
2mm for minimum thickness of brake pads, 23~25mm for
front brake disc, 10~12mm for rear brake disc.
For the first 1500km, you should avoid situations where
heavy braking is required.
Remember that regular servicing is vital to ensure that
all the brake components are examined for wear at the
correct intervals, and replaced when required to ensure
long term safety and optimum performance during the
interval prescribed in Warranty and Maintenance Manual.
The car needs to run in for 800km after the brake pad or
disc is replaced.

Maintenance
Brake Fluid Check and Top Up
Brake fluid is highly toxic, keep containers
sealed and out of the reach of children. If
accidental contact of brake fluid is suspected,
seek medical attention immediately.
Prevent brake fluid coming into contact
with the skin or eyes. If this occurs, rinse
immediately with plenty of water. If eyes
are still red, painful or uncomfortable, seek
medical attention immediately.
The brake fluid level should be checked weekly when the
system is cold and with the car on level ground.
The fluid level can be seen through the reservoir neck
and should be maintained as close to the "MAX" mark
as possible. Do not allow the level to drop below the
"MIN"mark.
