When the vehicle is driven only occa-  
sionally, during extended periods when  
the vehicle is not used at all, and in  
operating conditions where brake appli-  
cations are less frequent, there is an  
increased tendency for corrosion of the  
rotors and accumulation of contamina-  
tion on the brake pads. This occurs  
because the minimal pressure that must  
be exerted by the pads to clean the  
rotors by brake applications is not  
reached.
