Always apply this procedure after
driving through water deep
enough to wet brake components
or having the vehicle washed, to

ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM*
(ABS)
Anti-lock brake system is an advanced elec-
tronic braking system that will help prevent
a braking skid.
The anti-lock brake system prevents the
wheels from locking up during sudden brak-
ing or braking on a slippery road to help the
vehicle remain steerable and stable.
This system becomes operative only when
it senses differences in rotational speed of
the wheels, and that they are about to lock
up. The system detects the wheel speed
and electronically controls the pressure ap-
plied to the brake.
When the ignition is switched on, the ABS
warning light comes on. It goes out after
about 2 seconds. If it does not go out, or if
it comes on during driving, there is a de-
fect in the ABS. In this case the brake sys-
tem performs its regular function but with-
out the anti-locking capability.
In the event of a defect in ABS, the trac-
tion control system (TCS) is shut off as well.
Have the ABS checked by Ssangyong
Dealer or Ssangyong Authorized Service
Operation as soon as possible.
