Intelligent Systems
Servo The vacuum booster increases the pressure generated by the driver by pressing the brake pedal. The amplifier operates only when the engine is running. When the booster is not operating, such as when driving a vehicle or failure of the amplifier, it is necessary to press the brake pedal more strongly than usual.
Brake Assist (BAS) The most dangerous situation timely driver brakes, but not with the greatest possible pressure on the brake pedal. Action brake assist when the driver presses the brake pedal sharply, it is recognized as a booster of an emergency. Power in a short time creates a maximum pressure in the brake system as soon as possible and to put in place effective anti-lock system and shorten the braking distance. Do not reduce the pressure on the brake pedal, for as soon as the brake pedal is released, the brake assistant cease to have effect.
Anti-lock braking system (ABS) Anti-lock braking system (ABS) considerably increases the degree of active safety.
NOTE Anti-lock braking system prevents the wheels from locking during braking. |
Action ABS When a wheel when braking the vehicle begins to show a tendency to lock, the brake pressure of the wheel mechanism is reduced. This process can be seen by a ripple of a brake pedal, accompanied by a characteristic sound. The driver now knows that the wheels tend to lock, and ABS prevents this process. For normal operation of the ABS should not be "booster" foot traffic - keep the brake pedal is pressed continuously. When emergency braking on slippery roads remain possible to complete on road conditions control over the movement of the car, as the wheels are not blocked. But we should not hope that the brakes in any road surface condition can shorten braking distance. On gravel or fresh snow braking distance may even increase. Keep in mind that the ABS is somewhat different when the transmission level include reduced ?�LOW?�.
Protivozanosnaya ESP system Protivozanosnaya system works together with ABS, traction control and traction control system.
NOTE Protivozanosnaya system (electronic stability - ESP) reduces the likelihood of demolition and skidding car. |
Action protivozanosnoy system This system reduces the possibility of demolition and skidding car, podtormazhivaya individual wheels. Based on the data of turning the steering wheel and the speed is determined by the direction in which the driver is going to move, and it is compared with the behavior of the car. When you start the demolition and skidding car, the system automatically brakes the specific wheel. Then the car is returned to a state of dynamic stability. When the car oversteer (tendency to drift back of the car) and understeer (tendency to demolish the front of the car turning outwards) achieved complete control over the movement of the vehicle.
Action traction control system (ASR) This system prevents slippage of the drive wheels under hard acceleration by reducing the power developed by the engine. At all speeds the system works in conjunction with ABS. At failure of brakes and broken as the work of this system. With this system, under certain conditions, it is possible to pull away, rapid acceleration or driving uphill.
