Brakes
Air Brake System
This vehicle’s brake system functions with
the use of compressed air generated from
the engine’s air compressor. The
compressed air is stored in various air
tanks to ensure that air pressure is
available whenever the driver needs it.
WARNING
Do not drive through water deep
enough to wet brake components, as it
may cause the brakes to work less ef-
ficiently than normal. The vehicle's
stopping distance may be longer than
expected, and the vehicle may pull to
the left or right when brakes are ap-
plied, which could contribute to an ac-
cident involving death or personal in-
jury.
