Braking
(AutoDrive Transmission)
Always allow a sufficient stopping distance so that brakes can be applied gradually. Practice braking in a safe area to become familiar with the feel of the SLINGSHOT brakes before driving in traffic.
-
To slow the vehicle, release the throttle pedal and depress the brake pedal evenly and gradually. The AutoDrive system will shift to lower gears as the speed decreases.
-
If stopping in traffic, keep your foot on the brake until driving may resume.
-
If stopping to park, press on the brake pedal until you come to a complete stop. Once motionless, pull up on the parking brake as far as possible, press the engine start/stop button, and then take your foot off the brake.
