Driving your vehicle
Anti-lock brake system (ABS)
WARNING - ABS
Your ABS is not a substitute for
good driving judgement. You can
still have an accident. In fact, your
ABS will probably not be able to
prevent an accident in the following
driving conditions:
The ABS continuously senses the speed
of the wheels. If the wheels are going to
lock, the ABS system repeatedly modu-
lates the hydraulic brake pressure to the
wheels.
When you apply your brakes under con-
ditions which may lock the wheels, you
may hear a “tik-tik’’ sound from the
brakes, or feel a corresponding sensation
in the brake pedal. This is normal and it
means your ABS is active.
In order to obtain the maximum benefit
from your ABS in an emergency situa-
tion, do not attempt to modulate your
brake pressure and do not try to pump
your brakes. Press your brake pedal as
hard as possible or as hard as the situa-
tion warrants and allow the ABS to con-
trol the force being delivered to the
brakes.

Dangerous
driving,
such
as
neglecting safety precautions,
speeding, or driving too close to
the vehicle in front of you.
W-75
Check the brake warning light by turning
the ignition switch ON (do not start the
engine). This light will be illuminated
when the parking brake is applied with
the ignition switch in the START or ON
position.
Before driving, be sure the parking brake
is fully released and the brake warning
light is off.
If the brake warning light remains on
after the parking brake is released, there
may be a malfunction in the brake sys-
tem. Immediate attention is necessary.
If at all possible, cease driving the vehi-
cle immediately. If that is not possible,
use extreme caution while operating the
vehicle and only continue to drive the
vehicle until you can reach a safe loca-
tion or repair shop.
Driving at high speed in situa-
tions providing considerably less
traction, such as wet conditions
where hydroplaning could occur.
Driving too fast on poor road sur-
faces. The ABS is designed to
improve maximum braking effec-
tiveness on typical highways and
roads in good condition. On poor
road surfaces in poor condition,
the ABS may actually reduce
braking effectiveness.

Automotive readers have rated 2010 Kia Sedona Owners Manual 4.3 out of 5.0 based on 3 product reviews. I downloaded the manual for my father, who just purchased a 2010 Sedona. Since the vehicle did not come with a manual, it's nice to know they're site like Need Manual on the internet to assist. The only issue I could see is on the actual manual itself. On page 3/37 the text feature on that page did not appear. The only thing that came up was the rose colored square which looks like a picture of the seats should have appeared. Other than that, I really do appreciate you guys for having the manual online!
thank you
