Vacuum assisted brakes

Vacuum assisted brakes  - Braking precautions - Brake system - Starting and driving - Infiniti G Owners Manual - Infiniti G

The brake booster aids braking by using engine vacuum. If the engine stops, you can stop the vehicle by depressing the brake pedal. However, greater foot pressure on the brake pedal will be required to stop the vehicle and the stopping distance will be longer.

When the brake pedal is depressed slowly and firmly, you may hear a clicking noise and feel a slight pulsation. This is normal and indicates that the Brake Assist System is operating.
