ANTI-LOCKBRAKESYSTEM
Purpose

The Anti-Lock BrakeSystem (ABS)consists ofelectronic andhydraulic components. Itallows forcon-
trol ofbraking forcesothat locking ofthe wheels canbeavoided.
The ABS:
1) Improves propertracking performance throughsteering wheeloperation.
2) Eases obstacles tobe avoided throughsteering wheeloperation.
3) Improves vehiclestability bypreventing flatspins.

Operation

• When thevehicle speedisless than 10km/h (6MPH) thissystem doesnotwork.
• The Anti-Lock BrakeSystem (ABS)hasself-test capabilities. Thesystem turnsonthe ABS warning
light for1second afterturning theignition switchON.The system performs anothertestthefirst time
the vehicle reaches 6km/h (4MPH). Amechanical noisemaybeheard asthe ABS performs aself-
test. This isanormal partofthe self-test feature.Ifa malfunction isfound during thischeck, theABS
warning lightwillcome on.
• During ABSoperation, amechanical noisemaybeheard. Thisisanormal condition.
