their power because of wet brake
components, the following
procedure will help restore their

1. Check behind you for other
vehicles.
2. Keep a safe forward speed
with plenty of space to your
rear and sides.
3. Gently apply the brakes until
normal performance is

Warning (Continued)
This may indicate the brake pads
need to be repaired or replaced.
Driving with worn brake pads
could result in a collision and
personal injury.
Antilock Brake
System (ABS)
Anti-lock brake system (ABS)
prevents the wheels from locking.
ABS starts to regulate brake
pressure as soon as a wheel shows
a tendency to lock. The vehicle
remains steerable, even during hard
braking.
ABS control is made apparent
through a pulse in the brake pedal
and the noise of the regulation
process.
For optimum braking, keep the
brake pedal fully depressed
throughout the braking process,
despite the fact that the pedal is
pulsating. Do not reduce the
pressure on the pedal.
ABS operation can be recognised
by vibration and the noise of the
ABS process.
To stop the vehicle optimally, keep
pressing the brake pedal even if the
brake pedal vibrates.
Do not decrease your power when
pressing the brake pedal.
When you start the vehicle after
ignition is switched on, you may
hear mechanical sounds. This is
normal so that the ABS is ready.
