WARNING
Excessive or repetitive use of brakes for high
speed stops will cause an overheated brake system. This overheated
condition could cause sudden loss of brakes and/or fire, resulting
in serious injury or death. When traveling on long downhill stretches,
pump the brakes. Riding the brakes may cause the brake system to overheat
and result in brake failure.
