The ABS system prevents wheel lock-up during braking and therefore maintains optimum steering and vehicle control even on roads with low grip.
The purpose of the ABS system is to modulate the pressure of the braking system in order to prevent wheel lock-up even during braking on roads with low grip.For optimum use of the system, continuous pressure must be applied to the pedal.
Activation of the ABS varies according to the adherence conditions between the road surface and the tires. To notice
the pulsing of the pedal on a dry surface, greater pressure must be applied compared to when on slippery road
surfaces. System activation, in fact, will be immediate if an attempt is made to stop the vehicle on snow or ice. Under
critical conditions the ABS helps prevent wheel lock-up and maintains control of steering.
The ABS, in certain low grip conditions (ice), might increase the distance necessary for stopping the vehicle but
permits maintaining control of the latter.
During braking without the ABS, the system electronically controls (DRP) braking distribution between the front and
rear. & $ 8 7 , 2 1

The ABS system is supplementary to the basic braking system. Any ABS system failure, although not leading to a
loss in braking, can modify the vehicle’s normal behavior when driving at top speed.
When the key is turned to “ON”, the ABS control unit carries out an internal test of the system. The warning light

turn off.
Normally an intermittent acoustic signal comes on together with the light which, except for the initial start test, must
be interpreted as a malfunction that must be considered. If the warning light comes on during driving, a malfunction
was found and the ABS system is not activated. The vehicle must therefore be stopped, the engine must be turned
off and, after waiting one minute, the key must be turned to “ON” again. If the malfunction is temporary, the warning
light will turn off after carrying out the routine initial test.
