TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

BRAKE SYSTEM

If power assist is lost for any reason (for example,
repeated brake applications with the engine off), the
brakes will still function. However, you will experience a
substantial increase in braking effort to stop the vehicle.
If either the front or rear hydraulic system loses normal
braking capability, the remaining system will still function
with some loss of overall braking effectiveness. This will
be evident by increased pedal travel during application,
greater pedal force required to slow or stop, and activation
of the Brake Warning Light and/or the Anti-Lock Brake
System (ABS) Warning Light during brake use.

The brake system power assist is provided by a
hydro-boost unit which shares fluid with the power
steering system. You may experience some clicking or
hissing noises from the hydro-boost system during hard
braking conditions.
NOTE:
Under cold temperatures, pedal effort will be higher than
normal until the power steering fluid reaches operating
temperature.

WHEEL AND TIRE TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS

Proper lug nut/bolt torque is very important to ensure that
the wheel is properly mounted to the vehicle. Any time a
wheel has been removed and reinstalled on the vehicle,
the lug nuts/bolts should be torqued using a properly
calibrated torque wrench using a six-sided (hex) deep wall
socket.
