When braking a slight pulsing accompanied by noise may be felt on the brake pedal due to the action of the ABS system.
WARNING
The ABS exploits the tyre-road grip at the best, but it cannot improve it; you should therefore take every care when driving on slippery surfaces without taking unnecessary risks.
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.
