166 Driving and Operating
used in some cases when regenerative
braking is reduced. Friction brakes will be
used to hold the vehicle after coming to a
stop, and a noise may be noticed when the
brakes apply.
When driving on slippery roads, it is
recommended to turn off One-Pedal Driving.
See Winter Driving 0 154.
While using One-Pedal Driving, the Electric
Parking Brake may apply in some
circumstances. This can occur when:
.
The driver exits the vehicle.
.
The vehicle has remained stationary for
five minutes.
To resume driving, press the accelerator
pedal, and the Electric Parking Brake will
automatically disengage.
Drive Systems
All-Wheel Drive
This vehicle may be equipped with advanced
electric All-Wheel Drive (eAWD). The eAWD
system delivers power to all four wheels,
and the system adjusts automatically to the
driving conditions. The eAWD system
continuously varies the drive power to the
front and rear wheels to maximise driving
efficiency and improve driving dynamics.
Your vehicle has exceptional driving
capability, but care must always be taken to
adjust driving style to the traffic and road
conditions.
The vehicle eAWD settings may be
customised for the driver mode selected. See
Driver Mode Control 0 171 for more
information.
Brakes
Electric Brake Boost
Vehicles equipped with electric brake boost
have hydraulic brake circuits that are
electronically controlled when the brake
pedal is applied during normal operation.
The system performs routine tests and turns
off within a few minutes after the vehicle is
turned off. Noise may be heard during this
time. If the brake pedal is depressed during
the tests or when the electric brake boost
system is off, a noticeable change in pedal
force and travel may be felt. This is normal.
Antilock Brake System (ABS)
The Antilock Brake System (ABS) helps
prevent a braking skid and maintain steering
while braking hard.
ABS performs a system check when the
vehicle is first driven. A momentary motor
or clicking noise may be heard while this
test is going on, and the brake pedal may
move slightly. This is normal.
If there is a problem with ABS, this warning
light stays on. See Antilock Brake System
(ABS) Warning Light 0 94.
ABS does not change the time needed to
put your foot on the brake pedal and does
not always decrease stopping distance.
If you get too close to the vehicle ahead,
there will not be enough time to apply the
brakes if it suddenly slows or stops. Always
leave enough room ahead to stop, even
with ABS.
Using ABS
Do not pump the brakes. Just hold the brake
pedal down firmly. Hearing or feeling ABS
operate is normal.
