ABS (antilock brake system)
ABS (antilock brake system) may prevent wheel
lockup in case of emergency braking or braking on
wet slippery pavement so as to enhance the vehicle
stability and controllability.
When brake pedal is depressed, the pedal might
vibrate or give out working sounds. That indicates
that the ABS system works fine.
Furthermore, within several seconds when a certain
speed is reached after your automobile is started,
sounds inside the engine compartment may also be
heard.
The sounds are given out when the ABS system
performs self diagnosis, and they do not indicate
any exceptions.
E.
B.
D.
(electronic
braking
force
distribution)
Based on the E. B. D. (electronic braking force
distribution) function, optimum allocation of
braking force may be implemented as per the
operation and loading status of your automobile.
Therefore, the braking effect of an loaded
automobile may be guaranteed at any time.
Warning
Even if ABS system is available, your
automobile still need adequate braking length. A
safe distance shall be maintained from your
automobile to the preceding one.
Even if ABS system is available, never drive
your automobile at ultra high speed. Do drive
safely always. Look out for road condition at
any time during driving.
As compared with automobiles that are not
equipped with ABS snow-capped systems, the
automobile equipped with ABS systems need a
longer braking length when they run on rugged,
gravel-paved or snow-capped roads. Gear down
on such roads.
In case the ABS develops a fault, the warning
light
goes on. In such a case, ABS may
not work; however, your automobile is still
provided with conventional brake performance.
Once the warning light goes on, contact
immediately the local special service store for
inspection of your automobile.
If the warning lights of antilock brake system
and the E. B. D. warning lights go on and do not
go out after the engine is started up or during
your automobile is running, the rear wheels
might
be
separately
locked
up
during
emergency braking, such that your automobile
may be off balance. In such a case, avoid
emergency braking, and contact immediately
the local special service store for inspection of
your automobile.
Attention
When the driving speed is of 10km/hr or lower,
ABS system may not work. The system may act
as a conventional braking system.
For emergency braking, forcibly depress and
hold the brake pedal. If you release the brake
pedal, ABS system may not offer the expected
braking effect.
