ELECTRONIC BRAKE FORCE DISTRIBU-
TION SYSTEM (EBD) CONTROL
In ABS, electronic control is used so the rear wheel
brake hydraulic pressure during braking is regulated
by rear wheel control solenoid valves in accordance
with the vehicle's rate of deceleration, and the front
and rear wheel slippage which are calculated from
the signals received from the various wheel speed
sensors. EBD control provides a high level of control
for both vehicle braking force and vehicle stability.

The syst em has the following features:
•Because the system p rovides t he optimum rea r
wheel braking force regardless of vehicle load
co ndition a nd the condition of the road surface,
the system reduces the required pedal depre s
-
sion fo rce, particularly wh en th e veh icle is h eavily
lo aded o r driven on road surfaces with high fric
-
tional coef ficients.
•Because the duty place d on th e front brakes is
redu ced, th e increase in p ad tempe rature can be
controlled d uring brake s ap plication to impro ve
the we ar resist ance characteristics of the pad.
•Contro l valves such as the propo rtioning valve
are not required.

•The
active st ability control syst em (ASC) has the
st ab ility control and t he traction control (TCL)
fun ctio ns. By the integra ted control with th e
ant i-lock b rake system, the system stabilizes th e
ve hicle attitu de and at the same time secures the
drivin g force.
•When the st ability control fun ction dete rmin es
tha t the vehicle is in a dangerou s condition, it
redu ces the e ngine outpu t and a pplies b rake
force to f our wheels indepe ndently to control th e
ve hicle be haviour, avoiding the critical state.
•The tract ion control (TCL) fun ction prevent s the
drivin g wheel slip on a slippery road sur face,
ensurin g easy st artup, an d at the same time,
secure s proper drivin g force and improves ste er

Employment of the parking brake pedal clears front
centre space to allow a walk through design.
PUSH-ON/PUSH-RELEASE type pedal has been
installed for easier operation.
The parking brake pedal retreat suppression mecha-
nism that restraints the retraction of the brake pedal
during collision has been adopted in order to reduce
the shock to the driver's feet. The mechanism of the
parking brake pedal is basically the same as that of
the brake pedal.

retreat suppression mechanism, refer to GROUP
