ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
(ABS)
ABS regulates brake pres-
sure in such a way that the
wheels do not lock when
you brake. This allows you
to continue steering the vehicle when
braking.
The ABS warning lamp in the instrument
cluster lights up when the ignition is
switched on. It goes off after a few sec-
onds if the system is healthy.
While Braking
If ABS intervenes: continue to de-press •
the brake pedal vigorously until the
braking situation is over.
To make a full brake application: de- •
press the brake pedal with full force.
If ABS intervenes when braking, you will
feel a pulsing in the brake pedal. The pul-
sating brake pedal can be an indication of
hazardous road conditions, and functions
as a reminder to take extra care while driv-
ing.
WARNING
If ABS is faulty, the wheels could •
lock when braking. The steer ability
and braking characteristics may be
severely impaired. There is an in-
creased danger of skid-ding and ac-
cidents.
Drive carefully. Have ABS checked •
immediately at a TATA MOTORS
Authorized EV Service Centre as
soon as possible.
WARNING
The stopping distance required for •
vehicles with ABS may be slightly
more than conventional brake sys-
tem but ABS will still offer the advan-
tage of helping you maintain
directional control.
However, remember that ABS will •
not compensate for bad road or
weather conditions or poor driver
judgment. Drive within safety mar-
gins taking into consideration into
consideration prevailing weather
and traffic conditions.
