Even when the ABS is disabled,

normal braking is still effective. (If

your BRAKE warning lamp

illuminates with the parking brake

released, have your brake system

serviced immediately.)

Using ABS

When hard braking is required, apply continuous force on the brake

pedal; do not pump the brake pedal since this will reduce the

effectiveness of the ABS and will increase your vehicle’s stopping

distance. The ABS will be activated immediately, allowing you to retain

full steering control during hard braking and on slippery surfaces.

However, the ABS does not decrease stopping distance.

Parking brake

To set the parking brake (1), pull

the parking brake handle up as far

as possible. The BRAKE warning

lamp will illuminate and will remain

illuminated until the parking brake

is released.

To release, press and hold the

button (2), pull the handle up

slightly, then push the handle down.

Always set the parking

brake fully and make sure

that the gearshift is securely

latched in P (Park).

TRACTION CONTROL姟

Your vehicle is equipped with a Traction Control娂 system. This system

helps you maintain the stability and steerability of your vehicle,

especially on slippery road surfaces such as snow- or ice-covered roads

and gravel roads. The system will allow your vehicle to make better use

of available traction in these conditions.

During Traction Control娂 operation, the traction control active light will

illuminate, you may hear an electric motor type of sound coming from
