ABS INDICATOR*
A B S
BRAKE
* U.S. indicator shown
The ABS is self-checking. If
anything goes wrong, the ABS indi-
cator on the instrument panel
comes on (see page 34). This means
the Anti-lock function of the brak-
ing system has shut down. The
brakes still work like a convention-
al system, providing normal stop-
ping ability. You should have the
dealer inspect your car as soon as
possible.
The Braking System, Four Wheel Steering
The ABS works by comparing the
speed of the wheels. When re-
placing tires, use the same size
originally supplied with the car.
Tire size and construction can
affect wheel speed and may cause
the system to work inconsistently.
A car with ABS may require a
longer distance to stop on loose or
uneven surfaces than an equivalent
car without Anti-lock. The ABS
cannot make up for road conditions
or bad judgment. It is still your
responsibility to drive at reasonable
speeds for weather and traffic
conditions, and to leave a margin of
safety.
For a technical description of the
ABS hardware, refer to page
Four Wheel Steering
The 4WS and SR 4WS models
feature an electronically controlled
system that steers the rear wheels
as you steer the front wheels.
It uses the car's speed, angle of the
front wheels, and the rate that you
turn the steering wheel to steer the
rear wheels in the appropriate
direction and angle.
