Under heavy braking, the ABS prevents
the wheels from locking, allowing the
stopping distance to be managed and
keeping control of the vehicle.
Under these circumstances, the vehi-
cle can be steered to avoid an obstacle
whilst braking. In addition, this system
can increase stopping distances, par-
ticularly on roads with low surface grip
(wet ground etc.).
You will feel a pulsation through the
brake pedal each time the system is
activated. The ABS does not in any way
improve the vehicle’s physical perform-
ance relating to the road surface and
roadholding. It is still  to follow
the rules of good driving practice (such
as driving at a safe distance from the
vehicle in front, etc.).

and, depending on the vehicle, the
messages “CHECK ABS” and “CHECK

pedal. There is no need to pump

These functions are an ad-

critical driving conditions,
enabling the vehicle behav-

conditions.
However, the functions do not take
