continue to press on the brake
pedal with the same force.
You may feel a slight movement
of the brake pedal just after you
start the engine. This is the ABS
working.
ABS INDICATOR LIGHT
BRAKE A B S
U.S. Indicator shown
The ABS is self-checking. If
anything goes wrong, the ABS
indicator on the instrument
The Braking System, Towing a Trailer
panel comes on (see page 29).
This means the anti-lock function
of the braking system has shut
down. The brakes still work like
a conventional system, providing
normal stopping ability. You
should have the dealer inspect
your car as soon as possible.
A car with ABS may require a
longer distance to stop on loose
or uneven surfaces than an
equivalent car without anti-lock
brakes. The ABS cannot make up
for road conditions or bad
judgment. It is still your
responsibility to drive at
reasonable speeds for weather
and traffic conditions and
leaving a margin of safety.
