ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS)
(continued)
If the ABS system is faulty, two
possible situations may occur:
1 - The
orange
warning
light
illuminated
on
the
instrument panel.
The
braking
system
then
operates in the same way as a
vehicle not equipped with an
ABS
system.
Contact
your
Renault Dealer as a matter of
urgency.
2 - The orange
warning light and
the red brake circuit
incident warning light
illuminated on the instrument
panel.
This indicates that both the
braking system and the ABS
system are faulty. Your vehicle
brakes
may
still
partially
operate.
However,
it
is
dangerous to brake suddenly
and it is essential to stop
immediately, as soon as traffic
conditions allow. Contact your
Renault Dealer as a matter of
urgency.
The braking modulation provided
by the anti-lock braking system is
independent of the effort applied to
the brake pedal. In an emergency,
apply
continuous pressure
to the
brake pedal - there is no need to
pump it repeatedly.
