1. SYSTEM OVERVIEW

1) What is ABS?

When braking suddenly or braking on slippery roads, the vehicle keeps moving forward but the wheels

are locking and not rotating. If these happen, the vehicle may lose stability or rotate resulting in an

accident. ABS helps to maintain directional stability and control of the vehicle. ABS is designed to

secure more safety and increase the control of steering wheel during emergency braking situation. But,

ABS does not guarantee perfect safety beyond its physical limit. ABS in this vehicle contains EBD

function. In normal driving conditions, the brake system operates without ABS function.

2) What is EBD (Electronic Brake-force Distribution)?

EBD is an automobile brake technology that automatically varies the amount of force applied to each of a

vehicle's brakes, based on road conditions, speed, loading, etc. Always coupled with anti-lock braking

systems, EBD can apply more or less braking pressure to each wheel in order to maximize stopping

power whilst maintaining vehicular control. EBD does not operate when ABS is working.
