  2. ABS Transparency Objectives Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) • ABS Development • Critical Traction • ABS Advantages • With ABS…Do • With ABS… Do Not 42

  3. ABS Development • When was the ABS technology available? • On what vehicles was the first commercial application? • When did ABS become available for passenger vehicles? • What road vehicles were first required to install ABS? 43

  4. Traction Depends On: • Road Surface • Weather Conditions • Tires • Braking Techniques • Speed 44

  5. ABS Advantages • Enhanced Braking Action • Vehicle Steerability • Vehicle Stability • Stopping Distance 45

  6. With ABS…Do • Add to your following distance in bad weather • Practice use of ABS • Keep your foot firmly on the brake • Check owner’s manual for special concerns 46

  7. With ABS… Do Not • Drive More Aggressively • Pump The Brakes • Steer Too Much • Be Alarmed By ABS Noise or Vibration 47

  8. Intelligent Stability and Handling Systems • Physics Review • System Overview • Risk Factors • Understanding ISHS • ISHS Performance • ISHS Concerns • Conclusions Transparency ISHS-1 48

  9. Physics Review Natural Forces on Vehicle • Inertia • Momentum • Friction • Energy of Motion Transparency ISHS-2 49

  10. Physics Review Forces of Motion on Driver/Passengers • Inertia • Momentum • Impulse (Impact) • Kinetic Energy Transparency ISHS-3 50

  11. System Overview • Microprocessor and Sensor Technology • Optimize Use of Friction • Tire and Road Contact • Acceleration, Deceleration, and Turning • Variety of Systems in Use • Recognizing the Stability and Handling Systems Transparency ISHS-4 51

  12. Risk Factors • Driver Controls Some Risk Factors • Some Risk Factors Not Controlled • Other driver actions • Road surface changes • Weather conditions • Knowing Vehicle Safety Features Transparency ISHS-5 52

  13. Understanding ISHS • Intelligent Stability and Handling Systems • Standard equipment • Optional equipment • Recognizing System Names • Active Handling • Electronic Stability Program (ESP) • AdvanceTracTM • StabiliTrac • Dynamic Stability Control • TraxxarTM Transparency ISHS-6 53

  14. ISHS Performance • Provide Enhanced Vehicle Control • Avoid obstacles • Prevent traction losses • Sensors Detect • Direction of the vehicle • Direction of the steering wheel • Correct Direction of Vehicle • Automatically braking a specific wheel to enhance traction • Correct vehicle to steering path Transparency ISHS-7 54

  15. ISHS Concerns • How do they work? • Do I need this on my car? • How do I use the system? • Can I drive more aggressively? • How do I know the system is working? Transparency ISHS-8 55

  16. ISHS Concerns • Does my vehicle have ISHS? • When is the ISHS helpful? • Aren’t Intelligent Stability and Handling Systems the same as Traction Control Systems? • Are the ISHS similar to ABS? Transparency ISHS-9 56

  17. Conclusions • Know Your Vehicle Safety Systems • Steer The Car Toward Your Path of Travel • Use ABS effectively • ABS and ISHS Work Together to Enhance Vehicle Stability and Handling Transparency ISHS-10 57
