t

he   fixings   already   present   in   the  
v

ehicle;   these   fixings   must   be   used,
-

Electronic stability control (ESC)
Definitions
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
These systems improve the stability and manoeuvrability   of   your   vehicle   when   braking  
a

nd   contribute   towards   better   control   in  
c

orners,   in   particular   on   poor   or   slippery   road  
su

rfaces.
The
  ABS   prevents   wheel   lock   in   the   event   of  
em

ergency
 b
raking.
The
  electronic   brake   force   distribution   system  
m

anages   the   braking   pressure   wheel   by   wheel.
Emergency braking assistance
In an emergency, this system enables you to reach   the   optimum   braking   pressure   more  
q

uickly   and   therefore   reduce   the   stopping  
di

stance.
It
  is   triggered   according   to   the   speed   at   which  
t

he   brake   pedal   is   pressed.   This   is   felt   by   a  
r

eduction   in   the   resistance   of   the   pedal   and   an  
i

ncrease   in   the   effectiveness   of   the   braking.
Traction control (TRC)
This system optimises traction in order to limit wheel   slip   by   acting   on   the   brakes   of   the   driving  
w

heels   and   on   the   engine.   It   also   improves  
t

he   directional   stability   of   the   vehicle   on  
a

cceleration.
Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If there is a difference between the path followed   by   the   vehicle   and   that   required   by   the  
d

river,   this   system   monitors   each   wheel   and  
a

utomatically   acts   on   the   brake   of   one   or   more  
w

heels   and   on   the   engine   to   return   the   vehicle  
t

o   the   required   path,   within   the   limits   of   the   laws  
o

f   physics.

The TRC and DSC systems offer increased   safety   in   normal   driving,   but  
s

hould   not   encourage   the   driver   to   take  
e

xtra   risks   or   drive   at   high   speed.

t

he   speed   of   an   impact   if   the   driver   does   not  
r

eact   or   reacts   too   late   (brake   application   too

It
  remains   the   driver's   responsibility   to
