Abs System; Braking With Abs; Limitations Of Abs - KYMCO X-Town 300 Manual

ABS SYSTEM

The ABS system is the equipment that
prevents wheel lockup in case of an
emergency braking, thus is capable to
keep stability when applying brakes.

Braking With ABS

Use steady, even braking application on the
front and rear brake levers simultaneously.
Apply the brake levers with the same grip
pressure as you would without ABS.
The system controls braking pressure
automatically and independently at each
wheel to prevent wheel lockup.
WARNING
The ABS does not prevent from falling down
while cornering into a slippery condition.
OPERATION

Limitations of ABS

ABS does not apply the brakes
automatically. It needs to apply the brakes
at the right time and with the right amount
of braking force.
The ABS system only starts to work after
applying the brake lever.
ABS is not a substitute for safe driving. Even
with ABS, you must remain alert, react
appropriately and in a timely and defensive
manner during the travel.
Don't take unnecessary risks.
Cautious driving practices, such as
maintaining an adequate distance away from
the vehicle ahead, not speeding, anticipating
obstacles and adjusting your vehicle's speed
for traffic, weather and road conditions, are
essential for safe operation.
