Group of supplementary systems which help you  to  obtain  optimum  braking  in  complete Â
s
afety  in  emergency  situations:
-
Â
a
nti-lock  braking  system  (ABS),
-
Â
e
lectronic  brake  force  distribution  (EBFD),
-
Â
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 Â
w
heel  lock.
Normal
 operation  of  the  ABS  may  make  itself Â
f
elt  by  slight  vibration  of  the  brake  pedal.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on, accompanied  by  an  audible  signal Â
a
nd  a  message  in  the  screen,  it Â
i
ndicates  a  malfunction  of  the  anti-
lock
 braking  system  which  could Â
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 Â
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 CITROËN dealer or a
qualified
 w
orkshop.
When
Â
braking
Â
in
Â
an
Â
emergency,
Â
press
Â
v
ery
Â
firmly
Â
without
Â
releasing
Â
the
Â
p
ressure. When
 braking  in  an  emergency,  press Â
f
irmly  without  releasing  the  pressure.
When
Â
replacing
Â
wheels
Â
(tyres
Â
and
Â
r
ims),
Â
ensure
Â
that
Â
they
Â
conform
Â
to
Â
the

For optimum installation o f t he fo rward f acing c
hild  seat,  ensure  that  the  back  of  the  child Â
s
eat  is  as  close  as  possible  to  the  backrest Â
o
f  the  vehicle's  seat,  in  contact  if  possible.
You
 mst  remove  the  head  restraint  before Â
i
nstalling  a  child  seat  with  backrest  to  a Â
p
assenger
 sea
t.
Ensure that the head restraint is stored or
attached
 securely  to  prevent  it  from  being Â
t
hrown around the vehicle in the event of
sharp
 braking.  Refit  the  head  restraint  when Â
t
he  child  seat  is  removed.
Advice
Installing a booster seat
Children at the frontThe incorrect installation of a child seat in a
vehicle  compromises  the  child's  protection  in Â
t
he  event  of  an  accident.
Ensure that there is no seat belt or seat belt
buckle
 under  the  child  seat,  as  this  could Â
de
stabilise
 i
t.
Remember
 to  fasten  the  seat  belts  or  the Â
c
hild  seat  harnesses  keeping  the  slack Â
r
elative  to  the  child's  body  to  a  minimum, Â
e
ven  for  short  journeys.
When
 installing  a  child  seat  using  the  seat Â
b
elt,  ensure  that  the  seat  belt  is  tightened Â
c
orrectly on the child seat and that it secures
the
 child  seat  firmly  on  the  seat  of  your Â
v
ehicle.  If  your  passenger  seat  is  adjustable, Â
m
ove  it  for wards  if  necessary. The
 legislation  on  carrying  children  on  the Â
f
ront  passenger  seat  is  specific  to  each Â
c
ountry.  Refer  to  the  legislation  in  force  in Â
y
our  country.
Deactivate
 the  passenger's  front  airbag Â
w
hen  a  rear ward  facing  child  seat  is  installed Â
o
n  the  front  passenger  seat.
Otherwise,
 t
he
 c
hild
 r
isks
 b
eing
 ser
iously
 i
njured  or  killed  if  the  airbag  is  deployed.The
 chest  part  of  the  seat  belt  must  be Â
p
ositioned  on  the  child's  shoulder  without Â
t
ouching  the  neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt
passes
 correctly  over  the  child's  thighs.
CITROËN
 recommends  the  use  of  a  booster Â
s
eat  which  has  a  back,  fitted  with  a  seat  belt Â
g
uide  at  shoulder  level.
At
 rear  seating  positions,  always  leave Â
s
ufficient  space  between  the  front  seat  and:
-
Â
a
 rear ward  facing  child  seat,
-
Â
t
he  child's  feet  for  a  child  seat  fitted Â
fo
rward
 f
acing.
To
 do  this,  move  the  front  seat  for wards Â
a
nd,  if  necessary,  move  its  backrest  into  the Â
u
pright
 p
osition. As
 a  safety  precaution,  do  not  leave:
-
a c
hild or children alone and
unsupervised in a vehicle,
-
Â
a
 child  or  an  animal  in  a  vehicle  which Â
i
s  exposed  to  the  sun,  with  the  windows Â
c
losed,
-
Â
t
he  keys  within  reach  of  children  inside Â
t
he  vehicle.
To
 prevent  accidental  opening  of  the  doors Â
a
nd  rear  windows,  use  the  child  lock.
Take
 care  not  to  open  the  rear  windows  by Â
m
ore  than  one  third.
To
 protect  young  children  from  the  rays  of Â
t
he  sun,  fit  side  blinds  on  the  rear  windows.
