Applying the Brakes
[DR08100(ALL)06/94]
Apply the brake pedal evenly. Use the “squeeze” technique.
Push on the brake pedal with a steadily increasing force. This
allows the wheels to continue to roll while you are slowing
down, which lets you steer properly. In the event of a sudden
stop, do not pump the brakes. Pumping the brakes during an
anti-lock stop will diminish braking effectiveness.

RWARNING
Do not drive with your foot resting on the brake pedal.
This will increase your vehicle’s stopping distance and
may also cause brake damage.

RWARNING
If you are driving down a long or steep hill, shift to a
lower gear. Do not apply your brakes continuously, as
they may overheat and become less effective.

[DR08400(ALL)03/95] Using the Parking Brake
[DR08500(ALL)02/94]
The parking brake pedal is suspended just below the bottom of
the instrument panel to the left of the brake pedal. To set the
parking brake, press the brake pedal with your right foot and
hold it while you push the parking brake pedal down firmly
with your left foot.
