Caution: Use tires of the same size, construction and load capacity as the original vehicle tires, as using a different type of tire may interfere with the proper operation of the anti-lock braking system (ABS).
1. Anti-lock braking system (ABS) is designed to automatically prevent wheel locking during sudden braking or braking on slippery surfaces and ensures stable vehicle control.
2. When driving a vehicle, observe the following precautions:
- a) The ABS system may feel like a slight vibration in the brake pedal. Do not pump the brake pedal to stop, just press it harder. Pumping the brake pedal will increase the stopping distance.
- b) Braking efficiency depends on the tires' grip on the road surface. On slippery road surfaces, even with the ABS system in operation, the driver cannot always control the vehicle's movement at high speed or when performing maneuvers.
- c) Always keep a safe distance from the vehicle in front. Compared to vehicles without ABS, your vehicle's braking distance will be longer in the following situations:
- When driving on bumpy, gravel or snow-covered roads.
- When driving on roads that are potholed or have other differences in road surface height.
3. ABS indicator.
- a) When the ignition is turned on, the ABS indicator lights up on the instrument cluster for a few seconds. If there is a fault in the ABS system, the indicator lights up continuously.
- b) If a fault is detected in the rear axle Brake Force Distribution (DRP) system, the buzzer will turn on for ten seconds and the ABS indicator and parking brake status indicator will simultaneously light up on the instrument cluster. The indicators and buzzer will turn on for 10 seconds each time the ignition is turned on, until the fault is resolved.
