Anti-Lock Braking System (Abs) - TATA Motors TIGOR EV 2021 Owner's Manual

SAFETY
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
(ABS)
ABS regulates brake
pressure in such a way
that the wheels do not
lock when you brake.
This allows you to continue steering the
vehicle when braking.
The ABS warning lamp in the instrument
cluster lights up for few seconds when the
ignition is turned on. It turns off when the
motor is ON.
WARNING
• If ABS is faulty, the wheels could
lock when braking. The steer ability
and braking characteristics may be
severely impaired. There is an in-
creased danger of skidding and ac-
cidents.
• Drive on carefully. Have ABS
checked immediately at a TATA MO-
TORS Authorized EV Service Cen-
tre as soon as possible.
50
While Braking
• In an emergency situation take your
foot off the accelerator and press the
brake pedal fully. This allows the ABS
to regulate braking for you and have
steering control along with maximum
possible braking.
• When ABS is active driver will feel
brake pedal pulsating and very low
motor (ABS) activation noise from
Motor compartment, which is normal
during ABS braking.
WARNING
• On certain surfaces, such as gravel
or firm ground covered by snow, the
standard ABS system may have the
effect of increasing the stopping dis-
tance, but ABS will still offer the ad-
vantage of helping you to maintain
directional control of vehicle.
• The stopping distance required for
vehicles with ABS may be slightly
more than conventional brake sys-
tem but ABS will still offer the advan-
tage of helping you maintain
directional control.
• However, remember that ABS will
not compensate for bad road or
weather conditions or poor driver
judgment. Drive within safety mar-
gins taking into consideration into
consideration prevailing weather
and traffic conditions.
