Driving and Operating 93
Caution
ABS will not change the time needed
for braking, neither it will necessar-
ily shorten the braking distance.
Even if ABS is equipped, an
adequate braking distance should be
maintained.
Faults
Warning
If there is a fault in the ABS, the
wheels may be liable to lock due to
braking that is heavier than normal.
The advantages of ABS are no longer
available. During hard braking, the
vehicle can no longer be steered and
may swerve.
Have the cause of the fault remedied by
a CHEVROLET retailer.
Using ABS
Do not pump the brakes. Just hold the
brake pedal down firmly and let ABS
work. You might hear the ABS pump or
motor operating and feel the brake
pedal pulsate, but this is normal.
Braking in Emergencies
ABS allows the driver to steer and brake
at the same time. In many emergencies,
steering can help more than even the
very best braking.
Parking Brake
The parking brake acts on the rear
wheels.
The parking brake lever is positioned
between the front seats.
When using the parking brake, stop the
vehicle, depress the brake pedal and
pull the parking brake lever.
To release the parking brake, depress
the brake pedal, and
1. Pull the parking brake lever slightly.
2. Push the button at the end of the
brake lever.
3. Lower the brake lever while pressing
the button.
