Dual-diagonal braking system
Your vehicle is equipped with the dual-diagonal braking system. This means you still have braking on two wheels even if one of the dual systems should fails.
With only one of the dual systems working, more than normal pedal travel and greater pedal force are required to stop the vehicle.
Also, the vehicle does not stop in a short distance if only a portion of the braking system is working.
If you experience a malfunction with the braking system while driving, attempt to slow your vehicle by coasting or by using engine braking.
