DRIVING CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS (3/5)
Emergency brake assist
This system supplements the ABS
and helps reduce vehicle stopping dis-
tances.
Operating principle
The system is for detecting an emer-
gency braking situation. In this case,
the braking assistance immediately de-
velops maximum power and may trig-
ger ABS regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long as
the brake pedal is applied.
Hazard warning lights switching on
Depending on the vehicle, these may
light up in the event of sudden decel-
eration. Braking anticipation
Depending on the vehicle, when you
rapidly release the accelerator, the
system anticipates the braking ma-
noeuvre in order to reduce stopping
distances.
When using the cruise control:
– if you use the accelerator, when you
release it, the system may be trigge-
red;
– if you do not use the accelerator, the system will not be triggered.
Operating faults
When the system detects an operating
fault the message “CHECK BRAKING
SYSTEM” appears on the instrument
panel along with the
© warning
light.
Consult an approved dealer.
Driver assistance with a
trailer
This system helps to maintain control
over the vehicle while using a trailer.
It detects shaking caused by towing a
trailer under certain driving conditions.
Operating conditions
– the towbar must be approved by an authorised dealer;
– the harness must be approved by an authorised dealer;
– the towbar must be connected to the vehicle.
Operating principle
The function stabilises the vehicle by:
– asymmetric braking of the front wheels to reduce shaking caused by
the trailer;
– braking of all four wheels and limita- tion on engine torque to reduce the
vehicle speed until the shaking has
stopped.
Warning light
 flashes on the in-
strument panel to inform the driver.

CHANGING A WHEEL (2/2)
Loosen the wheel nuts and remove the
wheel.
Fit the emergency spare wheel in place
on the central hub.
Tighten the nuts and lower the jack.
With the wheels on the ground, tighten
the nuts as fully as possible and check
the tightness as soon as possible (tight-
ening torque 160 Nm).
Position the trim.
Anti-theft bolt
If you use anti-theft bolts, fit these
nearest the valve (otherwise it may
not be possible to fit the wheel trim).
1
Remove the wheel trim (refer to the in-
formation on “Wheel trims” in Section 5).
Use the wheelbrace 1 to slacken off the
wheel bolts. Position it so as to be able
to push from above.
3
Insert the jack 2 horizontally; the jack
head pin 3 should line up with the hole
in the lower part of the bodywork near-
est the wheel concerned.
Begin to crank the jack so that the base-
plate is correctly positioned (it should
be underneath the vehicle and aligned
with the jack head).
