The BAS is designed to maximize the vehicle’s braking
capability during emergency braking maneuvers. The
system applies maximum power boost to the brakes
more quickly in emergency braking conditions than
might otherwise be afforded solely by the driver’s brak-
ing style. This can help reduce braking distances. The
BAS complements the Anti-lock Brake System (ABS).
Applying the brakes very quickly results in maximum
BAS assistance. To receive the benefit of the system, you
must apply continuous full braking power during the
stopping sequence. Do not reduce brake pedal pressure.
Once the brake pedal is released, the BAS is deactivated.
