TRANSMISSION AND BRAKE SYSTEM
6-17
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
ABS (Anti-Lock Brake System)?
When you brake abruptly or on the slippery road, the ve-
hicle keeps going on ahead but the wheels are locking
not to rotate. At this time, your vehicle will not be steered
or rotate and could be resulted in accident. ABS controls
the wheels properly not to be locked and allows steer-
ing to increase the vehicle’s stability.
EBD (Electronic Brake-force Distribution)?
When the brake pedal is applied, it controls the braking
pressure electronically to effectively distribute the brak-
ing forces to the front wheels and rear wheels. EBD op-
erates when the speed differences between the most fast
front wheel and the rear wheel are over 1 km/h and if
ABS is engaged, it does not operate.
ESP SYSTEM*
The ESP system is an electronic vehicle stability control
system and driving safety supplementary system that
helps to avoid dangerous situations by applying brakes
on the wheels or the engine torque to compensate ve-
hicle stability when it is extremely unstable under condi-
tions such as sharp cornering. This system also includes
brake assist function for the handicapped persons be-
cause they depress the brake pedal softly even when
hard braking is required. If the system recognizes that it
is an emergency case requires hard braking, it delivers
high braking pressure to the wheels. The ESP function
works when vehicle stability is very unstable. The ESP
system does not work under normal driving conditions.
Brake Pedal (Foot Brake)
Foot brake is designed to decrease the vehicle speed and
stop the vehicle. Do not continuously apply the brake pedal
while going down a long hill. The brake system will be over-
heated causing vapor lock or fade to lose braking force. Use
foot brake along with the engine braking effects by selecting
lower gears.
Parking Brake
To apply parking brake, depress the parking brake pedal
firmly.
Parking Brake Release Lever
To release parking brake, pull up the parking brake release
lever.
Drive System Safety Function
While driving, do not depress the brake pedal when the ac-
celerator pedal is depressed. Otherwise, the response from
accelerator pedal may be delayed. This symptom is the safety
function to protect the vehicle’s drive system. This symptom
can be eliminated if you depress and release the accelera-
tor pedal once when the brake pedal is not depressed.
