dents  due to  improper  or  danger-
The ABS continuously senses the speed
of the wheels. If  the wheels are going  to
lock, the  ABS system  repeatedly modu-

wheels.

The  safety features  of an  ABS  (or
ESC)  equipped vehicle  should not
be tested  by high speed  driving or
cornering. This could endanger the
safety of yourself or others.
When you apply  your brakes under con-
ditions which  may  lock the  wheels, you

in the  brake pedal. This is normal  and it
means your ABS is active.

Even
though vehicle control  is improved
during  emergency braking,  always
maintain  a  safe  distance between

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
