keeping the brakes from locking. Noise from the ABS pump motor and

brake pedal pulsation may be observed during ABS braking and the

brake pedal may suddenly travel a little farther as soon as ABS braking is

done and normal brake operation resumes. These are normal

characteristics of the ABS and should be no reason for concern.

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.

ABS warning lamp

The ABS lamp in the instrument

cluster momentarily illuminates

when the ignition is turned on. If

the light does not illuminate during

start up, remains on or flashes, the

ABS is disabled due to a malfunction and needs to be serviced.

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.)

Parking brake

Apply the parking brake whenever

the vehicle is parked. To set the

parking brake, press the parking

brake pedal down until the pedal

stops.
