Functions of ABS (anti-lock braking system)
ABS regulates the brake pressure in critical driv‐
ing situations:
R
During braking, the wheels are prevented
from blocking, e.g. due to maximum full-stop
braking or insufficient traction of the tires.
R
Vehicle steerability while braking is ensured.
If ABS intervenes when braking, you will feel a
pulsing in the brake pedal. The pulsating brake
pedal can be an indication of hazardous road
conditions and can serve as a reminder to take
extra care while driving.
System limitations
R
ABS is active from speeds of approx. 5 mph
(8 km/h).
R
ABS may be impaired or may not function if a
malfunction has occurred and the yel‐
