Mitsubishi Outlander: Basic Brake
General Information
Brake systems with higher reliability and durability
have achieved distinguished braking performance.
FEATURES
IMPROVEMENT OF BRAKING PERFORMANCE
- In addition to the 10-inch single brake booster,
the small and long stroke-type master cylinder is
used to achieve the downsizing and secure the
assist force.
- The installation of 16-inch ventilated disc brake
on the front axle and 16-inch solid disc brake on
the rear axle achieves the secure braking force
and direct braking feeling.
IMPROVEMENT IN SAFETY
- The 4-wheel anti-lock brake system (4ABS) has
been installed to prevent slippage resulting from
the wheel lock and assure stable vehicle posture
and driveability.
- Electronic control braking force distribution system
(EBD) has been adopted to assure the maximum
braking force independently of the
passenger' position in the vehicle.
- X-type piping of brake lines have been adopted
for the front and rear wheels.
- Audible wear indicator has been adopted to the
front and rear brake pads to warn the driver of the
wear limit.
- The 10-inch single brake booster with brake
assist mechanism, which determines an emergency
exists based on the brake pedal depression
speed and force and provides the maximum
braking force, has been adopted.
SERVICE QUALITY IMPROVEMENTS
- Diagnostic function has been adopted to ABS for
easier inspection.
- Brake fluid reservoir, master cylinder, and brake
booster have been integrated for downsizing and
better serviceability.
BRAKE ASSIST MECHANISM
When the driver suddenly applies the brake, generally
there is a tendency that a driver depresses the
brake pedal quickly but not strong enough, or
depresses the pedal once but reduces the depression
force immediately after that. In this case, a sufficient
braking force cannot be obtained, resulting in a
longer stopping distance.
This brake booster with brake assist mechanism recognizes
the status as emergency when the driver
depresses the brake pedal quickly; it increases the
assist force to the maximum value and maintains the
output value of the brake booster to activate ABS.
Even if the driver reduces the depression force
immediately after depressing the brake pedal quickly,
this brake booster maintains the status where the
maximum assist force is being applied until no
depression force is applied to the brake pedal.
