Antilock Brake System(ABS)
The ABS prevents the wheels from
locking, caused by braking on slippery
roads, and maintains driving
directional stability and ensures
steerability.
NOTE
When depressing the brake pedal,
slight vibration might be felt from the
pedal. This vibration is a normal
occurrence when the ABS operates.
ABS does not operate at low speeds
(about 10 km/h (6.2 mph) or
slower).
Warning and Cautions forUsing the Antilock Brake System (ABS)
WARNING
Do not rely on the ABS as a substitute
for safe driving.
The ABS cannot compensate for unsafe
and reckless driving, excessive speed,
tailgating (following another vehicle
too closely), driving on ice and snow,
and hydroplaning (reduced tire friction
and road contact because of water on
the road surface). You can still have an
accident.
CAUTION
Always use tires of the specified size
and type for the front and rear wheels.
If a tire other than the specified size or
type is installed, the ABS system may
not operate normally.
