Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
(SH300A/AR)
This model is also equipped with an Anti-lock
Brake System (ABS) designed to help prevent
wheel lock up during hard braking on uneven
or other poor surfaces while running straight.
Although the wheel may not lock up - if you
are braking too hard in a turn the scooter can
still lose traction, causing a loss of control.
In certain conditions, on uneven surfaces or
loose terrain a scooter with ABS may have a
longer stopping distance than a scooter
without ABS.
The ABS system cannot compensate for road
conditions, errors of judgement, or improper
use of the brakes. It is always the
responsibility of the rider to adopt a suitable
road speed in relation to weather conditions,
the road surface, and the traffic levels, while
leaving an ample margin of safety.
The ABS system is self-regulating and always active.
• The ABS system may be engaged by
sudden upward or downward level
differences in the road surface.
Make sure you observe the prescriptions
concerning tyres (page 39). The ABS
computer acts on the basis of the
comparative speeds of the front and rear
wheel. The use of non-approved tyres can
affect the speed of the wheels and supply
confusing information to the ABS
computer.
• The ABS system is not active at low speed
(around 10 km/h (6 mph) or slower).
• The ABS system will not work if the battery
is discharged.
