Driving your vehicle
Anti-lock brake system (ABS)
The ABS system  continuously sens-
es  the  speed of  the  wheels.  If  the
wheels  are going  to  lock,  the  ABS
system   repeatedly   modulates  the
hydraulic   brake   pressure    to   the
wheels.
When you  apply  your brakes  under
conditions    which    may   lock    the
wheels,   you  may   hear   a  “tik-tik’’
sound from the brakes, or feel  a cor-
responding  sensation  in  the  brake
pedal. This  is  normal and  it  means
your ABS system is active.
In order to obtain the maximum ben-
efit  from   your  ABS  system   in  an
emergency situation,  do not attempt
to modulate your brake pressure and
do  not   try  to   pump  your   brakes.
Press  your brake  pedal as  hard  as
possible or  as hard  as the  situation
warrants and  allow the  ABS system
to control the force being delivered to
the brakes.
