firmly such as in emergency stop situations
and provides greater braking force.
If the brake pedal is depressed suddenly, the
brakes will be applied with more force than
usual.

The anti-lock braking system helps prevent
the wheels from locking up when braking.
This helps maintain vehicle drivability and
steering wheel handling.
When using the anti-lock brakes (sudden
braking), steering is slightly different
from normal driving conditions. Use the
steering wheel carefully.
Always keep a safe distance from the
vehicle in front of you. Even if your vehi-
cle is equipped with the anti-lock braking
system, leave a greater braking distance
when:
• Driving on gravel or snow-covered
roads.
• Driving on uneven road surfaces.
Operation of anti-lock braking system is
not restricted situations where brakes are
applied suddenly. This system may also
prevent the wheels from locking when
you drive over manholes, steel roadwork
plates, road markings, or any uneven road
surface.
When the anti-lock braking system is in
use, you may feel the brake pedal vibrat-
ing and hear a unique sound. It may also
feel as if the pedal resists being pressed.
In this situation, simply hold the brake
pedal down firmly. Do not pump the
brake, which will result in reduced
braking performance.
CAUTION
The brake assist system is not a device
designed to exercise braking force greater
than its capacity. Make sure to always keep a
sufficient distance between vehicles in front
of you without relying too much on the brake
assist system.
NOTE
Once the brake assist system is operational,
it maintains great braking force even if the
brake pedal is lightly released.
To stop its operation, completely remove
your foot from the brake pedal.
When the brake assist system is in use while
driving, you may feel as if the depressed
brake pedal is soft, the pedal moves in small
motions in conjunction with the operation
noise, or the vehicle body and the steering
wheel vibrate. This occurs when the brake
assist system is operating normally and does
not indicate faulty operation. Continue to
depress the brake pedal.
You may hear an operation noise when the
brake pedal is suddenly or fully depressed
while stationary. This does not indicate a
malfunction and the brake assist system is
operating normally.
When the anti-lock brake system warning
light/display or only ASC warning display
illuminate, the brake assist system in not
functioning.

CAUTION
The anti-lock braking system cannot prevent
accidents. It is your responsibility to take
safety precautions and to drive carefully.
To prevent failure of the anti-lock braking
system, be sure all 4 wheels and tires are the
same size and the same type.
