Control indicator u for ABS
When the ignition is sw itched on, the control
indicator lights up for a f ew se conds. At the
same time, the system performs a self-check
which may be audible. The system is ready for
ope ra tion wh en the control indica tor goes
out.
If the control in dica tor does not go out after a
few seconds, or if it lights up during driving,
there is a fault in the ABS. The vehic le 's brak e
system remains operational without ABS
regulation.
You can continue driving, provided you drive
with care a nd anticipation .
To have the f ault rectifie d, consu lt a Va uxh all
Dealership. The system's integral self-
diagnosis facility allows faults to be quickly
remedied.
If the re is a fault in the ABS , the rea r wheels
may tend to lock in the event of unusually
heavy braking. This may cause the vehicle
to swerve. The benefits of the ABS are lost .
