Driving
Antilock brake system (ABS)
The ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) avoids
locking of vehicle wheels, assuring that
the vehicle can keep steering performance
even in emergency braking to help you
evade obstacles.
The ABS integrates EBD (Electric
Brakeforce Distribution) to ensure its
performance more excellent.
ABS actions
The ABS doesn’t function in normal
braking, effective only when vehicle
wheels are to be locked. In braking,
pulsation of brake pedal with noise
indicates the ABS is functioning; the
pulsation and noise are normal.
Don’t loosen the brake pedal at that
moment.
To brake with ABS
Step on the brake pedal with full efforts in
emergency conditions to initiate the ABS
immediately. However, you still keep
control of steering; if there is enough
space, you can also evade obstacles.
It is suggested that you shall be familiar
with the braking technique while taking no
unnecessary risks.
Though the ABS can ensure
best
braking efficiency,
stopping distance varies
according to road conditions. The
ABS can‟t always assure a shortened
braking distance. For example,
braking distance of a car equipped
with ABS may be longer than that of
one
not equipped with ABS.
Similarly, working of the ABS can‟t
eliminate hazards caused by much
shorter distance from the car in the
front, water involvement, over-fast
turn or bad pavement, neither can it
prevent accidents arising out of
negligence and incorrect driving. Be
careful in driving. Decelerate the car
in turning.
ABS self-check
The ABS will make a self-check after your
car is started. During the period, you can
hear mechanical noise. This is normal.
If the ABS warning lamp is
ON
during running, it
indicates that the ABS has
faults. Please park the car and
contact Chery chartered service
stations.
