STARTING AND OPERATING
Brak e Assist System (BAS)
WARN ING!
The BAS is designed to optimize the vehicle’s braking
capability during emergency braking maneu vers. The
system detects an emergency braking situ ation by sens-
ing the rate and amount of brake application and then
applies optimum pressu re to the brakes. This can help
red uce braking distances. The BAS complements the
Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS). Applying the brakes very
quickly resu lts in the best BAS assistance. To receive the
benefit of the system , you must apply continu ous brak-
ing pressu re during the stop ping sequ ence. Do not
red uce brake pedal pressu re unless braking is no longer
desired . Once the brake pedal is released , the BAS is
deactivated .

Automotive readers have rated 2008 Chrysler Town Country Owners Manual 5.0 out of 5.0 based on 3 product reviews. Looked up a few items and was impressed with how fast it worked. Bought vehicle used and manual was missing. Thanks to this sight I can figure out all these buttons and switches.
