The anti lock brake system does not operate at speeds below 3 to 6 MPH 5 to 10 km h The speeds vary according to road conditions When driving the anti lock brake system controls the wheels so they will not lock when braking abruptly or when braking on a slippery road Thus difficult steering and swerving of the vehicle due to locked wheels is minimized The system detects the wheel rotation rate and electronically controls the pressure applied to each brake Slight vibration on the brake pedal accompanied by noise usually occurs while the ABS system is operating Such vibration and noise encountered during abrupt braking is not a problem but indicates that the system is functioning may hear a clunk noise and or feel a pulsation in the brake pedal This is normal and is not an indication of any malfunction If the computer senses any malfunction it switches the anti lock brake system off and turns on the ABS brake warning light in the dashboard The brake system then operates normally but without anti lock assistance If an abnormality occurs in the system the anti lock Continue to download »

Crosswinds and rough roads adversely affect vehicle trailer handling possibly causing vehicle sway When being passed by larger vehicles be prepared for possible changes in crosswinds that could affect vehicle handling If swaying does occur firmly grip the steering wheel steer straight ahead and immediately but gradually reduce vehicle speed This combination helps to stabilize the vehicle Never increase speed Be careful when passing other vehicles Passing while towing a trailer requires considerably more distance than normal passing Remember the length of the trailer must also pass the other vehicle before you can safely change lanes To maintain engine braking efficiency and electrical charging performance do Trailer towing tips In order to gain skill and an understanding of the vehicle s behavior you should practice turning stopping and backing up in an area which is free from traffic Steering stability and braking performance will be somewhat different than under normal driving conditions Always secure items in the trailer to prevent load shift while driving Avoid abrupt
