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 fault
warning light
illuminated
on the fault 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.
