The Braking System, Four Wheel Steering
The ABS is self-checking. If anything
goes wrong, the ABS indicator on
the instrument panel comes on (see
page
34
). This means the Anti-lock
function of the braking system has
shut down. The brakes still work like
a conventional system, providing
normal stopping ability. You should
have the dealer inspect your car as
soon as possible.
A car with ABS may require a longer
distance to stop on loose or uneven
surfaces than an equivalent car with-
out Anti-lock. The ABS cannot make
up for road conditions or bad judg-
ment. 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
216
.
Four Wheel Steering
The Canadian SR 4WS model
features 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.
