[GF00500(ALL)03/96]
The rear drum brakes are self-adjusting.
Automatic adjustment occurs when the brakes
are applied while “backing up.” If normal
operation does not include much backing, adjust
the brakes when they seem “low,” using the
procedure under If Brakes Do Not Grip Well or
Pedal is “Low” in this chapter.

[GF00600(ALL)03/96]
The hydraulic brake system is made up of two
independent hydraulic circuits. One hydraulic
circuit supplies fluid to the front disc brakes and
the other hydraulic circuit supplies fluid to the
rear drum brakes. These two circuits are
supplied by a common hydraulic brake fluid
reservoir, with a fluid level sensor.

The brake light in the instrument cluster will
light for low brake fluid in the common brake
fluid reservoir.
