3.2.1 Anti-lock Braking Sys-
tem (ABS)
The Anti-lock brake system (ABS) is an impor-
tant part of the vehicle active safety system.
When the Anti-lock brake system (ABS) acti-
vates, the friction between the wheels and the
road surface belongs to rolling friction. The
ABS will take full advantage of the maximum
adhesion between the wheels and the road
surface for braking, thus improving braking de-
celeration and shortening braking distance to
allow you to maintain steering control.
The ABS working is equivalent to high-frequen-
cy inching braking. In an emergency, when
you press the brake pedal, you will feel the
pedal pulsation and hear some rattles from the
operating brake master cylinder. This means
the ABS is working properly. Since the brake
master cylinder adjusts the brake pressure
constantly, a force will be fed back to the brake
pedal continuously. Therefore, in this case, be
sure to press the brake pedal down all the way.
Do not press the brake pedal repeatedly.
The ABS is just a driving assist system which
plays a limited role. A vehicle with ABS may re-
quire a longer distance to stop on loose or un-
even surfaces, such as gravel or snow, than on
cement pavement or dry surfaces. Do not think
that the ABS braking performance can reach
the ideal state in any case. So, do not depend
on the ABS excessively. Only safe driving is the
most important.
Under following conditions, when you step the
brake pedal to activate ABS, if you feel vibra-
tion, and it is normal:
• When shifting.
• When taking emergent braking.
• When turning at high speed.
• When driving on wet road.
• When driving on projected or pit road.
• When making sudden start after the car
is started.
