2) Maximum Brake Force
FBmax = wheel load FR x coefficient of friction (Mh)
The braking process cannot be described
sufficiently accurately with the brake forces
calculated. The values calculated only apply if
the wheel is not locked. In the case of a locking
wheel, the static friction turns into lower sliding
friction, with the result that the stopping distance
is increased. This loss of friction is termed "slip"
in specialist literature.

2) EBD (Electronic Brake Force Distribution) System
▶System description
As an add-on logic to the ABS base algorithm, EBD works in a range in which the intervention
thresholds for ABS control are not reached yet.
EBD ensures that the rear wheels are sensitively monitored for slip with respect to the front axle. If slip is
detected, the inlet valves for the rear wheels are switched to pressure hold to prevent a further increase
in pressure at the rear-wheel breaks, thus electronically reproducing
a pressure-reduction function at the rear-wheel brakes.
ABS features an enhanced algorithm which includes control of the brake force distribution between the
front and rear axles. This is called Electronic Brake Distribution. In an unloading car condition the brake
efficiency is comparable to the conventional system but for a fully loaded vehicle the efficiency of the
EBD system is higher due to the better use of rear axle braking capability.
▶Advantages
Elimination of conventional proportioning valve EBD utilizes the existing rear axle wheel speed
sensor to monitor rear wheel slip.
Based on many variables in algorithm a pressure hold, increase and/or decrease pulsetrain may be
triggered at the rear wheels insuring vehicle stability.
Vehicle approaches the ideal brake force distribution (front to rear).
Constant brake force distribution during vehicle lifetime.
EBD function is monitored via ABS safety logic (conventional proportioning valves are not
monitorable). ·

3) Important Notice
The modulators for production line are not filled with the brake fluid (dry type). But, for after service, they
are filled with the brake fluid (wet type).
Make sure to keep the procedures in service manual when bleeding the air from the brake lines.
Be familiar with the lamp ON conditions to provide the correct information and reliability to customers.
ECU monitors the valve and motor for ABS when the vehicle speed approaches 5 km/h. At this time, you
can hear the clattering noise. 1.

4. HYDRAULIC CIRCUIT DIAGRAM
1) Hydraulic Circuit of ABS
The vehicle equipped only with the ABS controls the wheel’s braking force using three 3-channel
4-sensor method. The front wheels that are the primary circuit of the brake system is composed of two
wheel speed sensors and two channel valves system with two inlet valves and two outlet valves. The
rear wheels that are the secondary circuit of the brake system is composed of two wheel speed sensors,
one inlet valve and one outlet valve. This system is similar to the one from the previous model.

▶Pressure Decreases in the Circuit when ABS is Operating
Even when the hydraulic pressure on each circuit is stable, the wheel can be locked as the wheel speed
decreases. This is when the ABS ECU detects the wheel speed and the vehicle speed and gives the
optimized braking without locking the wheels. In order to prevent from hydraulic pressure increases, the
inlet valve is closed and the outlet valve is opened. Also, the oil is sent to the low pressure changer and
the wheel speed increases again. The ABS ECU operates the pump to circulate the oil in the low
pressure chamber to the master cylinder. This may make the driver to feel the brake pedal vibration and
some noises.

the master cylinder pressure. The oil in the low pressure chamber circulates to the wheel by the pump
and the wheel speed decreases as the hydraulic pressure at wheel increases. This operation continues
repetitively until there are no signs that the ECU is locking the wheels. When the ABS hydraulic pressure
control takes place, there may be some vibration and noises at the brake pedal.

Oil Pump Pressure Check ▶
Check the oil pump pressure to locate any defect
in oil pump.
Before checking the pressure, check the oil
level and belt tension. Prepare the empty
container to collect the spilled oil during the
service.
Unscrew the pressure line fitting in power
steering pump.
Install the pressure gauge between the
power steering pump and the power steering
oil pressure line.

1. OVERVIEW
A radial tire uses a cord angle of 90 degrees. That is, the cord material runs in a radial or direct
line from one bead to the other across the tread. In addition, a radial tire has a belt overwrap
under the tread surface to provide greater structural stability. The belt overwrap of a radial tire
distortion while the radial structure enables high speed driving.
Tire supports the weight of the vehicle, reduces the impact from the road and at the same time,
transmits the power to propel, brake and steer on the road. It also functions to maintain a

vessel of air.
There is wear limit mark on the tire, which protrudes as a strip shape located approximately 1.6
mm from the groove bottom. This wear limit mark is not seen from the outside so there is
additional "▲" mark on the shoulder to let the driver find the wear mark easily. To measure the tire
groove depth, measure at any point other than the point which has a wear limit mark.
The tire is worn unevenly according to the driver's driving habit, improper servicing, low tire
inflation pressure, changed tire location, etc.
1) Structure of Tire
Tread
This thick layer of rubber provides the
interface between the tire and the road.
Wear-resistant rubber is used to protect the
carcass and belt against fractures and
impacts and to deliver a long driving life.
Shoulder
Located between the tread and sidewall, the
shoulder rubber is the thickest so that the
design must allow for the easy diffusion of
heat generated within the tire while driving.
Sidewall
The part between the shoulder and bead, the
flexible sidewall protects the carcass and
enhances the ride. A tire’s type, size,
structure, pattern, manufacturing company,
product name and various characters are
indicated here. Bead
The bead attaches the tire to the rim and
wraps the end of the cord fabric. Comprised
of the bead wire, core, flipper and other parts,
the bead is generally designed to be slightly
tight around the rim so that in the case of a
sudden drop in inflation pressure, the tire will
not fall off the rim.
Carcass
As the most important framework of a tire, the
entire inner layer of cord fabric is called the
carcass. The carcass acts to support air
pressure, vertical load and absorb shocks.

When the vehicle is driven on a road surface covered with water at high speed, tires do not
contact with the road surface but rotate floating on a thin film of water.
It causes brake failure, lower traction force and losing the steering performance.
To prevent this, increase the tire inflation pressure, use tires with leaf shape tread which is not
worn. However, it is a best measure to drive slowly.
