Anti-Lock Brake System: Operation

NOTE: Anti-lock system is inoperative when rear differential is locked for 4 wheel drive operation. The ABS warning light will be illuminated during 4 wheel drive operation.

Under normal driving conditions, ABS functions as a standard brake system. With detection of wheel lock-up, short pedal pulsations occurring in rapid succession will be felt in brake pedal. Pedal pulsation will continue until there is no longer a need for ABS function or until vehicle speed falls below 3 MPH. Maintaining a constant force on the brake pedal provides shortest stopping distance.

CAUTION: See ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS article in GENERAL INFORMATION.
