Parking brake
When your brake pads are worn and
new pads are required, you will hear a
high pitched warning sound from your
front or rear brakes. You may hear this
sound come and go or it may occur
whenever you depress the brake pedal.
NOTICE
To avoid costly brake repairs, do not
continue to drive with worn brake
pads.

rear brake linings inspected if you hear
a rear brake rubbing noise. Also have
your rear brakes inspected each time
you change or rotate your tyres and
when you have the front brakes
replaced.
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJU-
RY or DEATH, do not operate the
parking brake whilst the vehicle is
moving except in an emergency situ-
ation. It could damage the brake sys-
tem and lead to an accident.
