The brake pedal feels stiff and hard.
If one of the brake circuits should malfunction the red warning light comes on (F page 6). The
pedal stroke increases slightly and the pedal feels softer but the pedal pressure required does not increase
noticeably.
Drive cautiously to a Volvo dealer or Service Station to have the brake system checked.
Breaking in parking brakes
To obtain best parking brake performance, the brake linings should be broken in.
Stop 5-7 times from 30 mph, transmission in neutral. Apply the parking brake lever, release button
pressed in during the stop.
The force must not lock the rear wheels. If this happens, release the brake enough to let the wheels
rotate. Drive a mile between each stop to cool the brakes.
NOTE:
The brake lights are not illuminated when applying the parking brake. To warn traffic from behind it is
therefore advisable to depress the brake pedal slightly to illuminate the stop lights.
Severe strain on the brake system.
The brakes will be subject to severe strain when driving in mountains or hilly areas.
The speed is usually low which means that the cooling of the brake 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 and let the engine help with the braking. A good rule is to use the same
gear downhill as would be used uphill. For vehicles with automatic transmission use position 2 or in
some cases 1.
