use, you may feel the brake pedal pulsa-
tion and the vibrations of the vehicle body
and steering wheel. It may also feel as if
the pedal resists being pressed.
In this situation, simply hold the brake
pedal down firmly. Do not pump the
brake, which will result in reduced
braking performance.
 An operation noise is emitted from the
engine compartment or feel a shock from
the brake pedal when start driving imme-
diately after starting the engine. These are
normal sound or operation that the anti-
lock braking system makes when per-
forming a self-check. It does not indicate
a malfunction.
 The anti-lock braking system can be used
after the vehicle has reached a speed over
approximately 6 mph (10 km/h). It stops
