CAUTION
Disc brakes wear indicator
Your vehicle has disc brakes.
• To avoid costly brake repairs, do
not continue to drive with worn
brake pads.
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 (if equipped). You
may hear this sound come and go or it
may occur whenever you depress the
brake pedal.
• Always replace brake pads as
complete front or rear axle sets.
Please remember that some driving con-
ditions 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.
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.

Applying the parking brake
To engage the parking brake, first apply
the foot brake and then without pressing

tion it is recommended that when parking
the vehicle on a gradient, the shift lever
should be positioned in the appropriate
low gear on manual transaxle vehicles or
in the P (Park) position on automatic
transaxle vehicles.
CAUTION
Driving with the parking brake
applied will cause excessive brake
pad and brake rotor wear.
