BRAKES AND ABS (IF FITTED)
Have your vehicle attended immediately.
Put your foot on brake pedal to apply brake. Do not ride
the brakes as they may overheat and the performance may
be impaired. The brake lights may confuse the drivers
behind you.
Use engine to assist the brakes by shifting to a lower gear
and lifting your foot from accelerator pedal.
Constant application of brakes while going down the hill
builds heat and reduces braking efficiency.
Check your brakes after driving through deep water. Apply
the brakes moderately to feel that they are normal. If not,
apply them gently and frequently until they do. With wet
brakes you should be extra cautious and alert in your driving.

ABS combined with the traditional hydraulic brake system pre-
vents the wheel from locking while braking by make use of
most of road to tyre grip. It also ensures better control and
stability of car while braking.
How ABS works How ABS worksHow ABS works How ABS works
How ABS works
ABS essentially consists of an Electronic Control Unit (ECU)
which reads signals from the sensors fitted to each wheel and
identifies the one which is likely to lock. ( Wheels will tend toBrakes BrakesBrakes Brakes
Brakes
Tata Safari is equipped with ventilated disc brakes on front
and drum brakes on rear wheels.
Braking system is vacuum assisted to reduce effort needed
on the brake pedal. It is a dual circuit service brake system
designed in such a way that one circuit will always work, even
if other circuit fails.
If this happens you will immediately notice that the brake
pedal goes down much farther and you need to press the
pedal harder. In such an event the stopping distance may be
longer.
In case of failure of vacuum the vehicle can still be stopped
with a higher pedal effort.
In case of vacuum failure or brake circuit failure, slow down
the vehicle by shifting to lower gear and lifting your foot
from the accelerator pedal. Pull to the side of the road as
soon as it is safe.
CAUTION CAUTIONCAUTION CAUTION
CAUTION
Brake system failure is very hazardous. It is best to have
your vehicle towed, but if you drive the vehicle in this
condition, be extremely cautious.

Safety tips while driving with ABS
1) During a hard braking or when the road grip is poor, you
will feel the brake pedal is pulsating and an audible noise
in the system. This is absolutely Normal and it’s the
indication that your ABS is rapidly pumping the brakes. Do
not release the brake pedal, this defeats the purpose of
ABS. Keep firm steady pressure on the brake pedal so as
not to interrupt the braking action as long as you steer
away from the hazard.
