Group of supplementary systems which help you   to   obtain   optimum   braking   in   complete  
s

afety   in   emergency   situations:
-
 
a
nti-lock   braking   system   (ABS),
-
 
e
lectronic   brake   force   distribution   (EBFD),
-
 
e
mergency   braking   assistance   (EBA).
Anti-lock braking system
and electronic brake force
distribution
Linked systems which improve the stability and manoeuvrability   of   your   vehicle   when   braking,   in p

articular   on   poor   or   slippery   sur faces.
Activation
The anti-lock braking system comes into operation   automatically   when   there   is   a   risk   of  
w

heel   lock.
Normal
  operation   of   the   ABS   may   make   itself  
f

elt   by   slight   vibration   of   the   brake   pedal.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on, accompanied   by   an   audible   signal  
a

nd   a   message   in   the   screen,   it  
i

ndicates   a   malfunction   of   the   anti-
lock
  braking   system   which   could  
r

esult in loss of control of the vehicle
when
 b

raking.
If
  this   warning   lamp   comes   on,
 t

ogether   with   the   STOP and ABS
warning
  lamps,   accompanied   by   an
 a

udible   signal   and   a   message   in   the
 s

creen,   it   indicates   a   malfunction   of
 t

he   electronic   brake   force   distribution
 w

hich could result in loss of control of
the
  vehicle   when   braking.
Emergency braking
assistance
System which, in an emergency, enables you to   obtain   the   optimum   braking   pressure   more  
q

uickly,   thus   reducing   the   stopping   distance.
Activation
It is triggered by the speed at which the brake pedal   is   pressed.
The effect of this is a reduction in the
resistance of the pedal and an increase in
braking
 e

fficiency.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In either case, contact a CITR
oËn

dealer or a
qualified
 w

orkshop.
When
 
braking
 
in
 
an
 
emergency,
 
press
 
v

ery
 
firmly
 
without
 
releasing
 
the
 
p

ressure. When
  braking   in   an   emergency,   press  
f

irmly   without   releasing   the   pressure.
When
 
replacing
 
wheels
 
(tyres
 
and
 
r

ims),
 
ensure
 
that
 
they
 
conform
 
to
 
the
 
ma

nufacturer's
 r

ecommendations.
