than usual to make up for the lack of power assistance. This can happen for example when towing your
vehicle or if the engine is switched off when the vehicle is rolling. The brake pedal feels harder than
usual.
Severe strain on the brake system
The brakes will be subject to severe strain when driving in mountains or hilly areas or towing. The speed
is usually low which means that the cooling of the brakes is less efficient than when driving on level
roads. To reduce the strain on the brakes, it is advisable not to use the brakes excessively. Instead, shift
into a lower gear, position 3 or in some cases, L (automatic transmission) and let the engine help with
the braking. Do not forget that, if you are towing a trailer, the brakes will be subjected to greater load
than is normal.
Moisture on brake discs and brake pads affects braking
Driving in rain and slush or passing through an automatic car wash can cause water to collect on the
brake discs and pads. This will cause a delay in braking effect when the pedal is depressed. To avoid
such a delay when the brakes are needed, depress the pedal occasionally when driving through rain,
slush etc. This will remove the water from the brakes. Check that brake application feels normal. This
should also be done after washing or starting in very damp or cold weather.
