Never hold the steering wheel to the extreme
right or left for more than five seconds if the
engine is running. This can damage the power
steering pump.

Applying the Brakes
[DR16450(ALL)05/94]
Your vehicle may have four-wheel power
anti-lock disc brakes which adjust automatically
through everyday use.
[DR16500(ALL)11/94]
Some models have power front disc brakes and
rear drum brakes which automatically adjust as
the brake pads and linings wear down.
[DR16700(ALL)04/95]
If your vehicle does not have anti-lock brakes,
apply the brake pedal gradually. 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.
*
[DR16800(ALL)02/95]
If your vehicle does not have anti-lock brakes,
extreme braking can make the wheels lock and
slide, causing you to lose control of the steering.
If the wheels lock, release the brake pedal and
repeat the “squeeze” technique.
*
[DR16900(ALL)08/95]
Do not drive with your foot resting on the brake
pedal; you will wear out the linings and increase
your vehicle’s stopping distance. Brake rotor
damage may also eventually occur.

[DR17000(ALL)03/95]
NOTE: If you are driving down a long or
steep hill, shift to a lower gear and do
not apply your brakes continuously. If
you apply your brakes continuously,
they may overheat and become less
effective.
