Brake Pedal (2)
Your vehicle is equipped with front disc
brakes and rear drum brakes. Depressing
the brake pedal applies both sets of
brakes.
You may hear occasional brake squeal
when you apply the brakes. This is a nor-
mal condition caused by environmental
factors such as temperature, humidity or
dust, etc.
Accelerator Pedal (3)
An accelerator pedal controls the speed of
the engine. Depressing the accelerator
pedal increases power output and speed.
