tors fl ash.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS) AND BRAKING SYSTEMS (EBFD AND CSC * )
When the vehicle is being driv-
en, illumination of this warning
lamp indicates that the parking
brake is still on or has not been
properly released.

When parking on a slope,
direct your wheels towards
the pavement and pull the
parking brake
on
.
PARKING BRAKE
Applying
Pull the parking brake to immobilise
your vehicle.
When changing wheels
(tyres), make sure that these
are approved.
The anti-lock braking system comes
into operation automatically when
there is a risk of wheel lock.
Releasing
Pull on the handle and press the button
to release the parking brake.
* The CSC system is linked with the EBFD on vehicles which are not fi tted
with ASR/ESP systems.
EMERGENCY BRAKING ASSISTANCE
The ABS, in conjunction with the EBFD and CSC * braking systems, increases
the stability and manoeuvrability of
your vehicle on braking and provides
improved control, in particular on poor
or slippery road surfaces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the
event of emergency braking.
The EBFD and CSC * systems pro-
vide full control of the braking pres-
sure wheel by wheel. A distribution
between:
- the front and the rear in the case of the EBFD (Electronic Brake
Force Distribution),
- the left and the right in the case of the CSC * (Cornering Stability
Control).
In an emergency, this system enables you to reach the optimum braking
pressure more quickly and therefore
reduce the stopping distance.
It is triggered by the speed at which
the brake pedal is pressed. This is
felt by a reduction in the resistance
of the pedal and an increase in the
effectiveness of the braking.
