Owner's Manual

You slam on the brakes. Here's what happens with ABS.
A computer senses that wheels are slowing down. If one of the wheels is
about to stop rolling, the computer will separately work the brakes at each
front wheel
and at the rear wheels.
The anti-lock system can change the brake pressure faster than any driver
could. The computer
is programmed to make the most of available tire
and road conditions.

You can steer around the obstacle while braking hard.
As you brake, your computer keeps receiving updates
on wheel speed and
controls braking pressure accordingly.
Remember: Anti-lock doesn't change the time
you need to get your foot
up to the brake pedal. If you get too close to the vehicle in front of you,
you won't have time to apply your brakes if that vehicle suddenly slows or
stops. Always leave e.nough room up ahead to stop, even though you have
anti-lock brakes.
To Use Anti-Lock
Don't pump the brakes. Just hold the brake pedal down and fet anti-lock
work for
you. You may hear the anti-lock pump or motor operate, and
feel the brake pedal pulsate,
but this is normal.
