you retain steering control when
braking very hard.

To apply: Pull up the switch. The PARK
indicator appears in the instrument
panel. Hold the switch up for
emergency braking while moving.

n
Brake Assist System
During hard or emergency braking, the system increases braking force. The
brake pedal may move slightly or make a noise; this is normal. Continue to
hold the brake pedal firmly down.
n Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)
During hard or emergency braking, the system rapidly pumps the brakes to
prevent wheel lockup and help you maintain steering control. Do not
pump the brake pedal, rather continue to hold it firmly down.
When ABS activates, you may notice vibrations through the brake pedal or
the vehicle body, the brake pedal depressing further than usual, or hear a
motor noise from the engine compartment. These are all normal.
The ABS may not function correctly if you use an incorrect tire type and
size.
