Braking
All the parts of the brake system are critical to safety. Have the vehicle serviced by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice at regular intervals according to the “WARRANTY AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL”. When brakes are wet
Check the brake system while driving at a low speed immedi- ately after starting, especially when the brakes are wet, to con- firm they work normally. A film of water can be formed on the brake discs and prevent normal braking after driving in heavy rain or through large puddles, or after the vehicle is washed. If this occurs, dry the brakes out by driving slowly while lightly depressing the brake pedal. When driving in cold weather
On snowy roads, ice can form on the braking system, making the brakes less effective. While driving in such conditions, pay close attention to preceding and following vehicles and to the condition of the road surface. From time to time, lightly depress the brake pedal and check how effective the brakes are. When driving downhill
It is important to take advantage of the engine braking by shift- ing to a lower gear while driving on steep downhill roads in order to prevent the brakes from overheating.
