CAUTION.:
"Riding" your brakes can cause them to overhe;
to the point that they won't work well. You mighl
not be able to stop your vehicle in time to avoid
an accident. If you "ride" your brakes, they will
get so hot they will require a lot of pedal fol-
-
slow you. down. Avoid "riding" the brakes.
If you keep pace with the traffic and
IW
realistic
following distances, you will eliminate a lot of
unnecessary braking. That means better braking and
longer brake life.
If your
I-
-dine ever stops while you're driving, brake
normally but don't pump your brakes. If you do, the
pedal may get harder to push down. If your engine
stops, you will still have some power brake assist.
But you will use it when you brake. Once the power
assist is used up, it may take longer to stop and the
brake pedal will be harder to push.
Anti-Lock Brakes (ABS)
Your Buick has an advanced electronic braking system
that will help prevent skidding.
This light on the instrument panel will go on when you
start your vehicle.
