provide the regulated hydraulic pressure. The
motor pump makes a low humming noise during
operation; this is normal.
WARNING!
• Pumping of the Anti-Lock Brakes will di-
minish their effectiveness and may lead to
a collision. Pumping makes the stopping
distance longer. Just press firmly on your
brake pedal when you need to slow down
or stop.
• The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) cannot
prevent the natural laws of physics from
acting on the vehicle, nor can they in-
crease braking or steering efficiency be-
yond that afforded by the condition of the
vehicle brakes and tires or the traction
afforded.
• The ABS cannot prevent collisions, includ-
ing those resulting from excessive speed
in turns, following another vehicle too
closely, or hydroplaning.

WARNING! (Continued)
• The capabilities of an ABS-equipped ve-
hicle must never be exploited in a reckless
or dangerous manner which could jeopar-
dize the user's safety or the safety of
others.
CAUTION!
The Anti-Lock Brake System is subject to
possible detrimental effects of electronic in-
terference caused by improperly installed
aftermarket radios or telephones.
NOTE:
During severe braking conditions, a pulsing
sensation may occur and a clicking noise
will be heard. This is normal, indicating that
the Anti-Lock Brake System is functioning.
