Parking lamps

parking lamps in the front fog lamps.
Instead, a substitute function is integrated into
the turn signal lamps in the main headlamps.
The vehicle cannot be illuminated on one side
for parking.
Things to remember when
driving
Brake system
Your MINI John Cooper Works GP has a brake
system that has been adapted to the increased
driving dynamics of the vehicle.
Because it is designed for high braking perfor-
mance, stability, and controllability, the brake
may generate noise during braking.
However, this does not affect the brake's perfor-
mance, safe operation or stability under load.
Cargo loading
Also follow the instructions for loading in
the Owner's Manual for the MINI; other-
wise, the operating safety of the vehicle is no
longer assured and the vehicle will not be in
compliance with the construction and use regu-
lations.<
Storage compartments
Two additional storage compartments are
located under the front luggage area floor
panel.
