THE ABS ANTI-LOCK
BRAKING SYSTEM*
In conjunction with tyres of an
approved make and in good condi-
tion, the ABS system with electronic
brake force distribution improves the
stability and handling of your vehicle,
particularly on an uneven or slippery
surface.
The anti-lock braking system comes
into operation automatically when
there is a risk of wheel lock.
In the event of emergency braking,
press very firmly without reducing
the pressure. In some conditions
the normal operation of the ABS
may be felt as vibrations of the
brake pedal.
Power steering
This is a comfort device which offers
the best compromise for parking, and
for driving at high speeds.
