Starting and driving
prevent sideslip caused by wheel locking.
By avoiding wheel locking, the vehicle will
not lose steering ability during emergency
braking and the sideslip of the vehicle will
be minimized when braking on a slippery
road.
Use
of
the
function
In case of emergency braking, just press
the brake pedal firmly to make the ABS
work. You may hear the sound of the anti-
lock brake pump or motor working and feel
the pulsation of the brake pedal, but this is
normal.
ABS is helpful to better control the
vehicle when braking on a slippery
road. However, it cannot prevent
accidents caused by careless or
dangerous driving and the driver
must drive carefully.
Even if ABS is used, the braking
distance on slippery roads will be
much longer than that on ordinary
roads. Even if tire chains are used on
rough sand roads or snow roads, the
braking distance will be very long.
Always keep a safe distance from the
front vehicles, and the driver should
maintain high safety awareness.
Recommendations
precautions for driving
1.
Even if your vehicle is equipped with
ABS, keep a sufficient distance from
the front vehicle. Compared with
vehicle not equipped with ABS, your
vehicle
requires
anti-lock
brake
and
longer
braking
distance in case of the following
conditions:
When running on sandy or icy and
snowy roads;
When tyres are installed with tire
chains;
When drive on pitted and uneven
roads;
When drive on bumpy road or bad
roads.
2.
In case of emergency, fully depress the
brake pedal to activate ABS. At this
time, you will feel the vibration of the
brake pedal and hear a specific sound.
Meanwhile, you will also feel the
rebounding of the brake pedal. Please
do not release the brake pedal until it
is no longer needed.
3.
ABS can also prevent the tires from
being locked on some roads where it is
difficult for the tires to grip. Road with
pit, road paved with steel plates for
construction, steps and other roads
with height difference.
4.
During emergency braking, you need to
act quickly and depress the brake
pedal with full force to allow the ABS
and brake-assist device to work.
5.
Please do not depress the brake pedal
in repeated times and with slight force
during emergency braking, otherwise
braking distance will extend.
6.
When the critical value of tire locking is
exceeded or when driving at high
speed in rainy days, a water film forms
between the tire and the road surface.
In case of loss of road gripping force,
the ABS will not work.
