ANTI-LOCK BRAKING (ABS)
When using a car equipped with anti
lock brake system always consider
the following points:
- Since the anti lock brake system is only
for balancing the braking force, therefore
when braking sufficiently press the brake
3
pedal and always follow safety guidelines.
-Feeling brake pedal vibrations under the
foot while braking over unstable roads or
sudden braking is normal and caused by
the operation of the anti brake system.
- To hear noise when braking over
unstable roads or sudden braking from
front and rear wheels is normal and due
to the operation of the anti brake system.
- The anti brake system is equipped
with an automatic defect finding system
that will light the anti lock brake system
warning indicator on the front panel
display in case of a problem.
- When the car is turned on, the anti- lock
brake system warning indicator
the front panel display is on and will turn
off after a few seconds. If the warning
indicator does not light when the car
is turned on or remains lit, is a sign of
problem in the anti lock brake system. In
104
this situation the car should be directed to
an authorized workshop with precaution.
- If the handbrake is completely released
the handbrake indicator
lock brake system warning indicator
are both lit on the front panel
display, stop the car with precaution and
contact an authorized workshop.
The brake dragging distance will be more
while you're driving on sloppy surfaces.
Make sure of proper functioning of the
brake after washing the vehicle or while
you're passing from the puddles.
Electronic brake force distribution
system (EBD)*
EBD system balances braking forces ratio
over rear and front wheels, and prevent
over braking on rear-axis wheels.
The system provides an optimizing and
on an ideal distribution ratio of the brake force
between rear and front axes, and then can
provide the best braking force ratio on each
wheel to maximize best brake performance.
Also by using the EBD, the pressure valve
of the vehicle will be no longer needed.
ABS system,
locking the wheel in sudden braking,
and EBD ensures the optimized braking
and anti distribution on the wheels. When you
use a car equipped with anti-lock braking
system, consider the following:
In the case of any problem in EBD
system, an alarm sign display on panel.
Caution
ABS braking system will function
independently from the pressure
exerted on the brake pedal. Therefore
in critical situation, it is recommended
to exert a forceful and steady
pressure on brake pedal. It is to be
noted that it is not mandatory to exert
subsequent (multiple) pressure on
the brake pedal.
