Apply brakes uniformly and evenly to prevent wheels from locking. Use front and rear brakes equally for best results.

WARNING
Do not apply brake strongly enough to lock the wheel. A locked wheel will skid and can cause loss of vehicle control, which could result in death or serious injury. (00053a)
