Caution: Use tires of the same size, construction and load capacity as the original vehicle tires, as using a different type of tire may interfere with the proper operation of the anti-lock braking system (ABS).
1. Anti-lock braking system (ABS) is designed to automatically prevent wheel locking during sudden braking or braking on slippery surfaces and ensures stable vehicle control.
2. The anti-lock braking system (ABS) is activated when the vehicle speed exceeds 10 km/h and deactivated when the vehicle speed falls below 5 km/h.
3. When driving a vehicle, take the following precautions:
- a) The ABS system may feel like a slight vibration on the brake pedal. Do not pump the brake pedal to stop, just press it harder. Pumping the brake pedal will increase the braking distance
- b) Braking efficiency depends on the tires' grip on the road surface. On slippery road surfaces, even with the ABS system operating, the driver cannot always control the vehicle's movement at high speed or when performing maneuvers.
- c) Always keep a safe distance from the vehicle in front.

Compared to vehicles without ABS, your vehicle's braking distance will be longer in the following situations:
- When driving on bumpy, gravel or snow-covered roads
- When driving on roads that are potholed or have other differences in road surface height.
