Warning
Although the vehicle is equipped
with the ABS brake system, it can
not prevent the accidents in the
following conditions.
- Driving too fast without following
safety regulations and safe
distance from the front vehicle.
- Driving too fast on the slippery
roads.
- ABS brake system is designed
to improve the brake function in
freeways and standard roads.
Therefore, on the uneven
pavements (gravel) the effective
performance of the ABS brake is
reduced.
When the brake system does
not work
In emergency situations at which
the brake does not function while
the vehicle is in motion, you can
stop the vehicle by engaging the
parking brake. In this case, the
vehicle will travel more distance
than the regular braking condition.
Warning
Warning
Applying the parking brake, while
driving at normal speed, can
make the vehicle out of control.
Therefore, in case of applying the
parking brake to stop the vehicle
you have to be very careful.
- Do not put your foot on the
brake pedal to rest while driving,
it heats the brakes and cause
early wears of the brake pads
resulting in more travel distance
when applying brake than the
normal condition.
- When going down a long steep,
shift into a lower gear and do not
apply brake successively .This
will make the brakes so hot and
reduce their efciency.
- Wet brakes can reduce their
efciency in stopping the vehicle
and may cause pulling to one
side.
In these conditions push the
brake pedal gently and check
the brakes after leaving the wet
area. To dry the brakes, apply
the brakes several times gently
to reduce the speed and to
return the brake performance
to the normal condition.
