• After the engine has started or while
the vehicle is running, if the anti-lock
brake system warning light and brake
warning light remain illuminated and
will not go out, the rear tyres alone may
lock during hard braking, thus making
the vehicle unstable.
• In this case, avoid hard braking and
have the vehicle checked immediately
by an authorised Perodua Service
Centre.
NOTE
• The ABS system will not operate at
vehicle speed 10 km/h (6 mph) or less.
The system will function as a normal
braking system.
• Be sure to keep depressing the brake
pedal strongly at the time of hard
braking. If you release the brake pedal,
the ABS system will not provide its
intended effects.
• Never perform pumping braking*. If
you perform the pumping braking, the
braking distance will become longer.
• *“Pumping braking” refers to a braking
method of depressing and releasing
the brake pedal several times.
CAUTION
• Your vehicle, even if equipped with the
ABS, still requires a sufficient stopping
distance. Always keep a safe distance
from the vehicle running ahead of your
vehicle.
• Never drive your vehicle at an
excessively high speed, even if
equipped with the ABS always drive
safely. Always be careful and pay
attention to the road conditions while
driving.
• Compared with those without ABS, the
braking distance of a vehicle equipped
with ABS may be extended on rough
roads or gravel roads. Under such road
conditions, drive at a reduced speed.
• If the ABS encounters with a
malfunction, the warning light goes
on. Even under this state, the normal
braking performance is retained,
although the ABS is no longer
functioning.
When this light illuminates, have the
vehicle checked immediately by an
authorised Perodua Service Centre.
Brake pad wear limit indicator
The brake pad wear limit indicators on the
front disc brakes give a warning noise when
the brake pads are worn.

WARNING
Do not continue using the worn brake
pads. This could reduce braking
effectiveness and cause an accident.
Have the brake pads and rotor
checked or replaced immediately.
