Disc brakes wear indicator
Your vehicle has disc brakes.
When your brake pads are worn and new
pads are required, you will hear a high-
pitched warning sound from your front
brakes or rear brakes. You may hear this
sound come and go or it may occur when-
ever you depress the brake pedal.
Please remember that some driving condi-
tions or climates may cause a brake
squeal when you first apply (or lightly
apply) the brakes.This is normal and does
not indicate a problem with your brakes.
Parking brake
Applying the parking brake
To engage the parking brake, first apply the
service brake and then depress the parking
brake pedal down as far as possible.
Releasing the parking brake
To release the parking brake, depress
the parking brake pedal a second time
while applying the service brake. The
pedal will automatically extend to the fully
released position.
WARNING - Brake wear
This brake wear warning sound
means your vehicle needs service.
If you ignore this audible warning,
you will eventually lose braking
performance, which could lead to a
serious accident.
CAUTION
• To avoid costly brake repairs, do
not continue to drive with worn
brake pads.
• Always replace the front or rear
brake pads as pairs.

the vehicle, use great caution in
