ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
(ABS - EBFD)
The ABS and EBFD (electronic brake
force distribution) systems improve the
stability and manoeuvrability of your
vehicle on braking, in particular on
poor or slippery surfaces.
The ABS prevents locking of the
wheels, the EBFD provides control of
the braking pressure wheel by wheel. If this warning light comes on,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on
the display, it indicates a
malfunction of the ABS which
could result in a loss of control of the
vehicle on braking.
If this warning light comes
on, together with the brake
and STOP warning lights,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on the
display, it indicates a malfunction of
the electronic brake force distribution
which could result in a loss of control of
the vehicle on braking.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSISTANCE SYSTEM (EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables
the optimum braking pressure to be
reached more quickly, press the pedal
fi rmly without releasing it.
It is triggered by the speed at which the
brake pedal is activated.
This alters the resistance of the brake
pedal under your foot.
To prolong the operation of the
emergency braking assistance system:
keep your foot on the brake pedal.
Good practice
The anti-lock braking system comes
into operation automatically when
there is a risk of wheel lock. It does not
reduce the braking distance.
On very slippery surfaces (ice, oil, etc...)
the ABS may increase the braking
distance. When braking in an
emergency, do not hesitate to press
the brake pedal fi rmly, without
releasing the pressure, even on a
slippery surface, you will then be able
to continue to manoeuvre the vehicle
to avoid an obstacle.
Normal operation of the ABS may be
felt by slight vibration of the brake
pedal.
When changing wheels (tyres
and rims), ensure that these are
recommended by CITROËN.
Stop immediately.
In both cases, contact a CITROËN
dealer.

Changing a wheel
108
4. OPERATING PROCEDURE - Place the jack in contact with the locating point provided, the one
which is closest to the wheel to
be changed. Ensure that the jack
is straight and that the base of
the jack is fully in contact with the
ground.
- Extend the jack to lift the wheel clear of the ground.
- Resume and complete the unscrewing of the wheel bolts.
- Remove the bolts and remove the wheel.
Do not extend the jack until you have
started unscrewing the bolts on the
wheel to be changed and have placed
the chock under the wheel diagonally
opposite.
- Remove the trim pulling it using the
embellisher remover.
- Loosen the wheel bolts and start unscrewing them. Anti-theft bolts
If your vehicle is fi tted with wheels with
alloy rims:
- Each wheel has an anti-theft bolt.
- These bolts can be loosened using
your anti-theft socket (given to you
in delivery of your vehicle) and the
wheelbrace.
