Braking while cornering always requires
extreme care even when using
ABS.
The most important advice to follow
is this:
WARNING
When the ABS cuts in, and
you feel the brake pedal
pulsating, do not remove your foot,
but keep it pressed. In doing so you
will stop in the shortest amount of
space possible under the current
road conditions.
If you follow these tips you will be
able to brake better in any situation.
IMPORTANT Vehicles fitted with
ABS shall only be fitted with wheel rims,
tyres and brake pads of the make and
model approved by the vehicle manufacturer.
The system is completed with an electronic
brakeforce distributor called
EBD which improves braking system
performance by means of the ABS system
control unit and sensors.
WARNING
The vehicle is fitted with an
electronic brakeforce distributor
(EBD). The > and x
warning lights come on at the same
time when the engine is running to
indicate that there is an EBD system
failure. In this case violent
braking may be accompanied by
early rear wheel locking with the
possibility of skidding. Drive extremely
carefully to the nearest Fiat
Dealership to have the system
checked.
WARNING
Warning light > alone,
with the engine running,
normally indicates a fault in the
ABS system only. In this case, the
braking system is still efficient,
though without the anti-locking device.
Under these conditions, performance
of the EBD system may
be reduced. In this case too, you are
advised to go immediately to the
nearest Fiat Dealership, driving in
such a way to avoid sharp braking
to have the system checked over.
WARNING
If the x brake fluid low
warning light comes on,
stop the vehicle immediately and
contact the nearest Fiat Dealership.
Fluid leaks from the hydraulic system,
in fact, can compromise brake
system operation, both traditional
systems and systems with ABS.
