'05 HIGHLANDER_U (L/O 0409) CAUTION Do not overestimate the anti −lock brake system: Although the anti −lock brake system assists in providing vehicle control, it is still important to drive with all due care and maintain a moderate speed and safe distance from the vehicle in front of you, because there are limits to the vehicle stability and effectiveness of steering wheel operation even with the anti− lock brake system on. If tire grip performance exceeds its capability, or if hydroplaning occurs during high speed driving in the rain, the anti −lock brake system does not provide vehicle control. Anti −lock brake system is not designed to shorten the stopping distance: Always drive at the moderate speed and maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you. Compared with vehicles without an anti −lock brake system, your vehicle may require a longer stopping distance in the following cases: D Driving with tire chains installed. D Driving over the steps such as the joints on the road. D Driving on roads where the road surface is pitted or has other differences in surface height. Install all 4 tires of specified size at appropriate pressure: The anti −lock brake system detects vehicle speeds using the speed sensors for respective wheels' turning speeds. The use of tires other than specified may fail to detect the accurate turning speed resulting in a longer stopping distance. Type A D Driving on rough, gravel or snow− covered roads.
