Pointers and indicators

10.10.11 ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) indicator

 The ABS indicator lights on when the key in the ignition lock is switched to the "ON" position. In case of normal operation of the anti-lock braking system, the indicator switches off after a few seconds. In case of a system fault, the ABS indicator lights up again.

In case if the ABS indicator is lit (the brake system indicator is not lit), the ABS does not work, but the brake system is functioning normally. Thus, during emergency braking or braking on wet road surface, the wheels can lock and slide.

Attention
In case if the ABS indicator and the brake system indicator light up at the same time, it is recommended to get off the road and contact the service station. In this case, the ABS operation is disrupted, the car becomes extremely unstable when braking. Periodic activation of the indicator does not indicate a malfunction while driving.
