Avoid needless heavy braking. Some people drive

in spurts — heavy acceleration followed by heavy

braking — rather than keeping pace with traffic.

This is a mistake. Your brakes may not have time to

cool between hard stops. Your brakes will wear

out much faster if you do a lot of heavy braking.

If you keep pace with the traffic and allow realistic

following distances, you will eliminate a lot of

unnecessary braking. That means better braking and

longer brake life.

If your engine ever stops while you are driving, brake

normally but do not pump your brakes. If you do,

the pedal may get harder to push down. If your engine

stops, you will still have some power brake assist.

But you will use it when you brake. Once the power

assist is used up, it may take longer to stop and

the brake pedal will be harder to push.

Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)

Your vehicle may have anti-lock brakes. ABS is an

advanced electronic braking system that will help

prevent a braking skid.

If your vehicle has anti-lock

brakes, this warning light

on the instrument panel will

come on brieﬂy when

you start your vehicle.

When you start your engine, or when you begin to drive

away, your anti-lock brake system will check itself.

You may hear a momentary motor or clicking noise while

this test is going on, and you may even notice that

your brake pedal moves or pulses a little. This is normal.

If there is a problem with the anti-lock brake system,

the anti-lock brake system warning light will stay on.
