As you brake, your computer keeps receiving updates on wheel speea ana controls braking pressure accordingly. Remember: Anti-lock doesn'tchange the time you need to get your foot up to the brake pedal. If you get too close to thevehicle infront of you, you won't have time to apply yourbrakes if that vehicle suddenly slows or stops. Always leave enough room up ahead to stop, even though you have anti-lock brakes. To Use Anti-Lock Don't pump the brakes. Just hold the brake pedal down and let anti-lock work for you. You may hear theanti-lock pump or motor operate, and feel the brakepedal pulsate, but this is normal. Traction Control System Your vehicle has traction control system that limits wheel spin. a This is especially useful in slippery road conditions. The system operates only if of it sensesthat one or both the frontwheels are spinning or beginning to lose traction. When this happens, the system worksthe frontbrakes and reduces engine power (by shutting off fuel injectors) to limit wheel spin. The "TRACTION ACTIVE" message will displayon theDriver Information Center when the traction control system is limiting wheel spin. See "Driver Information Center Messages" inthe Index. You may feel the system working,or you maynotice some noise, but this is normal. If your vehicle is in cruise control when the traction control system begins to limit wheel spin, cruise control will automatically disengage. When the road conditions allow youto safely useit again, you mayturn thecruise control back on. (See "Cruise Control" in the Index.) The "TRACTION DISABLED" message will display theDriver on Information Center if there's aproblem with yourtraction control system. See "Driver Information Center Messages" inthe Index. When this message is displayed, system willnot limit wheel spin. Adjust your the driving accordingly. - 181
