Triggering ABS with light brake pressure is likely due to wheel slippage. The primary function of the ABS system is to automatically control the braking force of the brake actuators during vehicle braking, preventing wheel lock-up, reducing skidding, and maximizing the traction between the wheels and the ground, thus enhancing vehicle safety.
What should be noted when using ABS?
1：While having ABS in the vehicle is beneficial, it's essential to maintain adequate braking distance. For instance, in good road conditions, it's advisable to keep at least a 3-second braking distance from the vehicle in front. In poor road conditions, the braking distance should be increased accordingly.
2：Since ABS prevents wheel lock-up, the wheels have some steering effect. This allows for maneuvering by simultaneously braking and steering to avoid hazards.
3：In emergency situations, avoid repeatedly pressing the brake pedal. Repeated pressing can diminish the effectiveness of ABS and cause intermittent braking, increasing the braking distance.
