Notes
Use while driving
If on a rare occasion it is necessary to use the parking brake while driving, do not use excessive force when applying it. When using it, keep the button on the lever depressed.
Otherwise, using excessive force when applying the parking brake may cause the rear wheels to lock, resulting in fishtailing.
To prevent corrosion and braking control on one side only, lightly apply the parking brake periodically while coasting, if traffic conditions permit.
The brake lamps will not light up if the parking brake is engaged.
