Brake Pad Wear Limit Indicators; Luggage Stowage Precautions - Toyota Supra 1997 Manual

Even if the anti-lock brake system should
fail, the brake system will still operate con-
ventionally. However, when the "ABS"
warning light is on (and the brake system
warning light is off), anti-lock brake sys-
tem is not assisting brake performance so
that the wheel can lock-up during sudden
braking or braking on slippery road sur-
faces. Have your vehicle checked by your
Toyota dealer as soon as possible.

Brake pad wear limit indicators

The brake pad wear limit indicators on
your disc brakes give a warning noise
when the brake pads are worn to
where replacement is required.
If you hear a squealing or scraping noise
while driving, have the brake pads
checked and replaced by your Toyota
dealer as soon as possible. Expensive ro-
tor damage can result if the pads are not
replaced when necessary.

Luggage stowage precautions

When stowing luggage or cargo in the ve-
hicle, observe the following:
D Put luggage in the trunk when at all
possible. Be sure all items are secured
in place.
D Be careful to keep the vehicle bal-
anced. Locating the weight as far for-
ward as possible helps maintain bal-
ance.
D For better fuel economy, do not carry
unneeded weight.
CAUTION
!
D To prevent luggage or packages
from sliding forward during brak-
ing, do not stack anything in the
enlarged trunk room. Keep lug-
gage or packages low, as close to
the floor as possible.
