A  click   sound  may   be  heard   in  the
engine  compartment  when  the  vehicle
begins to move after  the engine is start-
ed.  These  conditions   are  normal  and
indicate that the anti-lock brake system

safety of yourself or others.
lock, the  ABS system  repeatedly modu-
lates the hydraulic  brake pressure to the
wheels.
When you apply  your brakes under con-
ditions which  may  lock the  wheels, you
may  hear   a   “tik-tik’’  sound   from   the
brakes, or feel a corresponding sensation
in the  brake pedal. This is normal  and it
means your ABS is active.
In order  to  obtain the  maximum benefit
from  your ABS  in  an emergency  situa-
tion,  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 situa-
tion warrants  and allow the ABS  to con-
trol   the  force   being  delivered   to  the
brakes.
•  Even  with the  anti-lock brake system,
your  vehicle   still   requires   sufficient
stopping  distance. Always  maintain  a
safe distance  from the vehicle  in front
of you.
•  Always   slow  down  when   cornering.
The anti-lock brake system cannot pre-
vent  accidents  resulting  from  exces-
sive speeds.
On  loose   or  uneven  road   surfaces,
operation of the anti-lock brake system
may  result  in  a  longer  stopping  dis-
tance than for vehicles equipped with a
conventional brake system.
