2003-2005 Alfa Romeo 166 Owners Manual

Braking   on  corners   always   requires   the
utmost  caution,   even  with  the  help  of  the
ABS.
WARNING    Cars  fitted  with   ABS  must
only  be  fitted  with   wheel  rims,  tyres   and
brake   linings   of  the  type   and  brand   ap-
proved  by  the Manufacturer.
WARNING
If   the   ABS   cuts   in,   it
means  that  the  grip limit
between   the   tyres  and   the  road
surface  has been  reached:  it is nec-
essary   to  slow   down  and   adapt
driving  to  the grip  available.
The   most   important     piece    of  advice
however,  is  the  following:
The  braking   system  is  completed   by  the
EBD  (Electronic    Brake   Distributor)    which
distributes   the  braking   action  through   the
ABS  control  unit  and  sensors.
WARNING
When  the ABS cuts  in and
you  feel the  pedal  pulse,
do  not  reduce    the  pressure,    but
keep    the    brake     pedal    firmly
pressed  with no  fear; this  way you
will stop  in the shortest  space  pos-
sible,  compatibly    with  the  condi-
tions  of the  road  surface.

utor (EBD).  If the>andx     warn-
ing lights  come on  at the same  time
when  the  engine  is  running,  there
is an EBD  system fault;  in this case,
violent  braking   may  lock  the  rear
wheels  too early, with  the possibil-
ity  of  skidding.   Drive   extremely
carefully  to the  nearest  Authorized
Alfa  Romeo   Services   to  have  the
system  checked   over.
Following   these   instructions   you  will   be
in  a condition   to  obtain  peak  braking   per-
formance   at all  times.
