Braking
(Manual Transmission)

WARNING
Braking improperly could result in loss of control, which could result in serious injury or death. Always apply the brakes gradually, especially on wet, slippery or other low traction surfaces. Avoid braking in a curve or turn.
NOTICE
If the anti-lock brake system activates while braking, you may feel pulsing at the brake pedal. Continue applying equal pressure to the brakes to slow or stop the vehicle.

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.

  1. To slow the vehicle, release the throttle pedal and depress the brake pedal evenly and gradually.

  2. As the vehicle slows, disengage the clutch, or downshift each time vehicle speed reaches a downshift point. If braking to a complete stop, disengage the clutch when the vehicle is nearly stopped.

  3. After braking to a complete stop, keep your foot on the brake pedal so other drivers can see your vehicle’s brake lights.
