Use of engine braking

Subaru Forester / Subaru Forester Owners Manual / Starting and operating / Braking / Braking tips / Use of engine braking

Remember to make use of engine braking in addition to foot braking. When descending a grade, if only the foot brake is used, the brakes may start working improperly because of brake fluid overheating, caused by overheated brake pads. To help prevent this, shift into a lower gear to get stronger engine braking.
