the rem aining system will still function with som e loss of
overall braking effectiveness. This will be evid ent by
increased pedal travel during application and greater
pedal force requ ired to slow or stop .
ABOUTYOURBRAKES
Your vehicle is equ ipped with power assisted brakes as
stand ard equ ipment. In the event power assist is lost for
any reason (for exam ple, rep eated brake applications
with the engine off), the brakes will still function. The
effort requ ired to brake the vehicle will be much greater
than that requ ired with the power system operating.
