ABS and EBD systems
The vehicle is equipped with ABS
(Antilock-Braking System) and EBD
(Electronic Brakeforce Distribution)
systems which, via the ECU and the ABS
sensors, help increase the braking
system's performance.
In the event of an emergency stop or
braking on slippery surfaces (where
there is snow, ice, etc.), the ABS,
together with the conventional
braking system, are disigned to allow
the driver to apply maximum braking
force without the wheels locking and
the driver consequently losing control
of the vehicle.
The system is based on an ECU which
processes the signals transmitted by
the 4 sensors located on the 4 wheels.
When a wheel is tending to lock, the
sensor warns the ECU which, in turn,
informs to the electro-hydraulic unit to
intervene by modulating the pressure
exerted on the brake calipers. The
driver will feel a “pulsing” sensation
coming from the brake pedal, which is
normal.
In the event of a failure, the system will
be deactivated, but this will not affect
the efficiency of the standard braking
system.
The failure is indicated by the red
warning ABS
>
switching on on the
instrument panel.
In this case, we recommend you
contact the nearest Authorized
Maserati Dealer, which, thanks to the
self-diagnostics system the vehicle is
equipped with, should be able to
identify the problem.
The vehicles must be fitted
with wheel rims, tires and
brake lining of the kind and
make approved for this model by the
manufacturer.
Although this device
contributes greatly to the
vehicle's safety, it is still
essential to drive with particular care,
especially when the road is wet or
there is snow or ice on the road.
The vehicle is equipped with
the EBD (Electronic Brakeforce
Distribution) system. If the
warning lights
>
“BRAKE” switches
on when the engine is running, this
indicates a malfunction in the EBD
system; in this case sharp braking
could lead to the rear wheels locking
too early, and the vehicle may skid.
Driving extremely carefully, go directly
to the nearest Authorized Maserati
Dealer to have the system checked.
