CAUTION
D The ABS system does not always decrease
stopping distance. You should always main-
tain a safe following distance from other ve-
hicles.
D When driving on badly surfaced roads, grav-
el roads, icy roads, or over deep newly fallen
snow, stopping distances may be longer for a
vehicle with the ABS system than one without.
When driving under these conditions, there-
fore, reduce your speed and leave ample dis-
tance from other vehicles.
D When you feel the ABS system operating,
you should maintain constant brake pedal
pressure. Do not pump the brake pedal since
doing so may defeat the operation of the ABS
system.
J ABS system self-check
You may feel a slight shock in the brake pedal and
hear the operating sound of ABS from the engine
compartment just after the vehicle is started. This is
caused by an automatic functional test of the ABS
system being carried out and does not indicate any
abnormal condition.
J ABS warning light
HG1016FA
The ABS warning light comes on when the ignition
switch is turned to the “ON” position and goes out
after about two seconds.
This is an indication that the ABS system is working
properly.
When driving with an insufficient battery voltage
such as when the engine is jump started, the ABS
warning light may come on. This is due to the low
battery voltage and does not indicate a malfunction.
When the battery becomes fully charged, the light
will go out.
