SAFETY
Anti-lock braking system (ABS) -
(if equipped)
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.
NOTE
When ABS is active, the driver will
feel the brake pedal pulsating,
which is normal.
WARNING
 The stopping distance required
for vehicles with ABS may be
slightly more than conventional
brake system but ABS will still
offer the advantage 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 margins, taking
into consideration prevailing
weather and traffic conditions.
20
NOTE
If the ABS warning lamp is ON
while driving then there is a mal-
function in the ABS system (the
standard braking system will how-
ever function) and the vehicle
should be driven cautiously to the
nearest TATA MOTORS Authorized
Service Centre.
Electronic brake force distribution

(EBD)

EBD monitors and controls
the brake pressure on the
rear wheels to improve driv-
ing stability while braking.
EBD provides optimal braking pressure
distribution between front and rear
wheels to optimize braking distance and
to ensure vehicle stability by means of
lowering braking pressure at rear
wheels.
WARNING
 If EBD is malfunctioning, the rear
wheels can lock, e.g. under full
braking. This increases the risk of
skidding and an accident.
 You should therefore adapt your
driving style to the different han-
dling characteristics. Have the
brake system checked immedi-
ately at a TATA MOTORS Author-
ized Service Centre as soon as
possible.
