TRAJECTORY CONTROL SYSTEMS
Anti-skid regulation (ASR)
and electronic stability
programme (ESP)
The anti-skid regulation (also known
as Traction Control) optimises trac-
tion to prevent skidding of the wheels,
by acting on the brakes of the driving
wheels and on the engine.
The electronic stability programme acts
on the brake of one or more wheels
and on the engine to keep the vehicle
on the trajectory required by the driver,
within the limits of the laws of physics.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a
vehicle which is bogged down, stuck
in snow, on soft ground...), it may be
advisable to deactivate the ASR and
ESP systems, so that the wheels
can move freely and regain grip.

 Press the "ESP OFF" button, lo-
cated in the centre of the dash-
board.
If this warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel and the in-
dicator lamp on the button comes
on, this indicates that the ASR and
ESP systems are deactivated. This is indicated by fl ashing
of this warning lamp on the
instrument panel.
Activation
These systems are activated auto-
matically each time the vehicle is
started.
They come into operation in the event
of a grip or trajectory problem. Intelligent Traction Control
system *
Your vehicle has a system to help
driving on snow.
This automatic system continuously
checks for situations of diffi cult sur-
face adhesion that could make it dif-
fi cult to move off or make progress
on deep fresh snow or compacted
snow.
In these situations, the system takes
over from the
ASR system by opti-
mising the amount of wheel slip to
provide the best traction and trajec-
tory control, even without snow tyres
and with or without chains.
In extremely severe conditions (snow
on top of ice, sand, deep mud…), it
can be useful to deactivate the ESP/
ASR systems to allow a degree of
wheel spin and so recover grip.
* Depending on engine type.

Reactivation
These systems are reactivated au-
tomatically each time the ignition is
switched back on or from 30 mph
(50 km/h).


Press the "ESP OFF" button again to reactivate them manually.
Operating fault If this warning lamp comes
on, accompanied by an au-
dible signal and a message
on the multifunction screen,
this indicates a malfunction of these
systems.
Have the systems checked by a
CITROËN dealer. The ESP/ASR systems offer ex-
ceptional safety in normal driving,
but this should not encourage the
driver to take extra risks or drive at
high speed.
The correct functioning of these
systems depends on observation
of the manufacturer's recommen-
dations regarding the wheels (tyres
and rims), the braking components,
the electronic components and the
CITROËN assembly and operation
procedures.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a CITROËN dealer.
EMERGENCY OR ASSISTANCE CALL
This system allows you to make an
emergency or assistance call to the
emergency services or to the dedi-
cated CITROËN service.
For more information on the use of
this function, refer to the "Audio and
telematics" section.
