WARNING:
WARNING:
The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is
designed  to  prevent  wheel  lock-up
during sudden braking  or on hazard-
ous road  surfaces. The  ABS control
module monitors the wheel speed and
controls the pressure applied to each
brake. Thus, in emergency situations
or on  slick roads,  ABS  will increase
vehicle control during braking.
o  The risk of rollover is greatly in-
creased  if  you  lose  control  of
your vehicle at highway speeds.
o  Loss of  control  often occurs  if
two or more wheels drop off the
roadwayandthedriveroversteers
to reenter the roadway.
o  In the event your  vehicle leaves
theroadway,donotsteersharply.
Instead, slow  down before pull-
ing back into the travel lanes.
o  In a collision crash, an unbelted
personissignificantlymorelikely
to die  than  a person  wearing a
seatbelt.
ABS will not prevent accidents due
to improper  or  dangerous driving
maneuvers.  Even  though  vehicle
control  is improved  during  emer-
gency braking,  always  maintain a
safe distance between you and ob-
jects ahead. Vehicle speeds should
always be reduced during extreme
road conditions.
The   braking   distance    for  cars
equipped with an anti-lock braking
systemmaybelongerthanforthose
without it in the following road con-
ditions.
NOTE:
During ABS operation, a slight pul-
sationmaybefeltinthebrakepedal
when the brakes are applied. Also,
a noise may be heard in the engine
compartment while braking. These
conditions are normal and indicate
that the  anti-lock brake  system is
functioning properly.
o  Never exceed posted speed lim-
its.
