Using ABS
(Continued)
To obtain the  maximum benefit from
your ABS in an emergency situation,
do  not   attempt   to  modulate   your
brake  pressure  and   do  not  try  to
pump   your  brakes.  Depress   your
brake pedal as hard as possible.
When you  apply  your brakes  under
conditions    which    may   lock    the
wheels, you  may  hear sounds  from
the  brakes, or  feel a  corresponding
sensation in the  brake pedal. This is
normal  and  it  means  your  ABS  is
active.
ABS does not reduce the time or dis-
tance it takes to stop the vehicle.
Always maintain a safe distance from
the vehicle in front of you.
ABS  will   not  prevent   a  skid   that
results   from   sudden   changes   in
direction,  such  as  trying  to  take  a
corner too  fast or  making a  sudden
lane change.  Always drive at  a safe
speed for the road and weather  con-
ditions.
On roads where  the road sur-
face is  pitted or  has different
surface height.
Tire  chains  are   installed  on
your vehicle.
