BRAKE SYSTEM RELATED WARNING LIGHTS
ABS Warning Light
This warning light comes on when the
ignition switch is turned to ON and
should go out if the system is normal.
The vehicle equipped with ABS performs self-diagnosis on the sys-
tem when the engine is started and drives off. During the diagnosis,
brake pedal vibration and noise may be apparent when the driving
motors discharges the hydraulic pressure from the internal hydrau-
lic device. This means the ABS is properly functioning.
CAUTION
• If this light doesn’t come on when the ignition is switched on or if
this light doesn’t go out, contact your nearest Ssangyong Dealer
or Ssangyong Authorized Service Operation. If this light illuminates
while driving, a malfunction of ABS is indicated. In this case the
brake system performs its regular function but without the anti-
locking capability. Have the system checked by Ssangyong Dealer
or Ssangyong Authorized Service Operation as soon as possible
if this condition occurs.
• Even though your vehicle is equipped with ABS, your vehicle may
need normal braking distances like conventional brake vehicles or
could be longer according to road conditions, so keep the safety
distance.
