Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)

The anti-lock brake system can avoid the wheel
lock and even let the vehicle maintain the steering
performance in case of emergency braking so as
to help you to avoid obstructions.
This ABS of this vehicle is integrated with
electric brake force distribution that makes
ABS performance more advanced.

Actions of ABS

The anti-lock brake system will not work
during normal service braking; it only works
when wheels are going to lock. If the brake
pedal pulsates with noise during braking, it
indicates the ABS is working. The pulsation
and noise are normal.

Do not release the brake pedal at the moment.
Notice: the tyre size and tyre pattern are vital
to the ABS normal performance, please
ensure to change the tyre with the one of the
same size, load range and structure. Use
the tyre of any different size will affect the
operation of ABS seriously.

Make Use of ABS Brake

Step on the brake pedal with all effort continuously
in emergency, and the antilock brake system will
be started immediately so that you are still able to
control the steering. If the space is enough, you
can even avoid obstructions.
It is suggested that you should have acquaintance
with the brake skills; however, you should avoid
any unnecessary risk.
ABS can ensure best braking efficiency,
but the parking distance will be greatly different
based on the road conditions. ABS can't ensure
that the brake distance can be shortened under all
road conditions.
For example, in the sand or snow field, the
brake distance of the vehicle with ABS is much
longer than that of the vehicle without ABS. In the
same way, the use of ABS can't avoid the dangers
caused by short distance to the front vehicle,
traveling in water, too fast steering or poor road
condition; it can't avoid the accidents caused by
mistake as well as the incorrect driving. Please be
cautious of driving and reduce the speed as turning.

ABS Self-check

After the vehicle starting up, the ABS will carry out
self-check. In the process, you can hear the noise
of machine, it is normal.
During driving, if it is found the ABS warning
lamp is on, it indicates there is malfunction in the
circuit of ABS system, please stop the vehicle and
contact with Chery authorized service station.
