Driving and Operating
191
ABS performs a system check when the
vehicle is first driven. A momentary motor
or clicking noise may be heard while this
test is going on, and the brake pedal may
move slightly. This is normal.
If there is a problem with ABS, this warning
light stays on. See
ABS does not change the time needed to
get a foot on the brake pedal and does not
always decrease stopping distance. If you
get too close to the vehicle ahead, there will
not be enough time to apply the brakes if
that vehicle suddenly slows or stops. Always
leave enough room ahead to stop, even
with ABS.
Using ABS
Do not pump the brakes. Just hold the brake
pedal down firmly. Hearing or feeling ABS
operate is normal.
Braking in Emergencies
ABS allows steering and braking at the same
time. In many emergencies, steering can
help even more than braking.
Parking Brake
To set the manual parking brake,
if equipped:
1. Hold the regular brake pedal down.
2. Firmly push the parking brake
pedal down.
3. The brake system warning light will
come on, if the ignition is on. See
.
If you are towing a trailer and parking on a
hill, see
Driving Characteristics and Towing
To release the parking brake:
1. Hold the regular brake pedal down.
2. Push down firmly on the parking brake
pedal to release the parking brake.
3. Slowly raise the parking brake pedal.
4. The brake system warning light will turn
off, if the ignition is on.
Caution
Driving with the parking brake on can
overheat the brake system and cause
premature wear or damage to brake
system parts. Make sure that the parking
brake is fully released and the brake
warning light is off before driving.
Driving with the parking brake applied will
cause a warning chime to sound and a
Driver Information Center (DIC) message
may display. Release the parking brake or
stop the vehicle.
