BRAKING ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS
Group of supplementary systems which help
you to obtain optimum braking in complete
safety in emergency situations:
-
anti-lock
braking system (ABS),
-
electronic
brake
force
distribution
(E
b F d ),
-
emergency
braking assistance (EBA).
When
braking
in
an
emergency
,
press
very
firmly
without
releas
-
ing
the pressure. When
replacing
wheels
(tyres
and
rims),
ensure
that
they
con
-
form
to
the
manufacturer's
rec
-
ommendations. When
braking
in
an
emergency
,
press
firmly
without
releasing
the
pressure.
Anti-lock braking system
and electronic brake force
distribution
Linked systems which improve the sta -
bility and manoeuvrability of your vehicle when
braking,
in
particular
on
poor
or slippery
surfaces.
Activation
The
anti-lock
braking
system
comes
into
operation
automatically
when
there
is
a risk of wheel lock.
Normal
operation
of
the
ABS
may
make
itself
felt
by
slight
vibration
of
the
brake
pedal. Operating fault
If
this
warning
lamp
comes
on,
accompanied
by
an
audible
signal
and
a
message
in
the
screen,
it
indicates
a
malfunc
-
tion
of
the
anti-lock
braking
system
which
could
result
in
loss
of
control
of
the
vehicle when braking.
If
this
warning
lamp
comes
on, together
with
the
ST
OP
and ABS
warning
lamps,
accompa
-
nied
by
an
audible
signal
and a
message
in
the
screen,
it
indicates
a malfunction
of
the
electronic
brake
force distribution
which
could
result
in
loss
of control
of the vehicle when braking.
You must stop as soon as it is safe
to do so.
Emergency braking assistance
System which, in an emergency , en -
ables you to obtain the optimum braking
pressure
more
quickly
,
thus
reducing
the
stopping distance.
Activation
It
is
triggered
by
the
speed
at
which
the
brake
pedal is pressed.
The
ef
fect
of
this
is
a
reduction
in
the
resistance
of
the
pedal
and
an
increase
in
braking efficiency.
In either case, contact a CITR
o
Ë
n
dealer
or
a
qualified
workshop.

TRAjECTORY CONTROL SYSTEMS
Anti-slip regulation (ASR) and
dynamic stability control (DSC)
The anti-slip regulation (also known as traction
control) optimises traction to
prevent
skidding
of
the
wheels,
by
act
-
ing
on
the
brakes
of
the
driving
wheels
and
on the engine.
The electronic stability control acts on
the
brake
of
one
or
more
wheels
and
on
the
engine
to
keep
the
vehicle
on
the
trajectory
required
by
the
driver
,
within
the
limits of the laws of physics.
Activation
These
systems
are
activated
automati
-
cally
each time the vehicle is started.
They
come
into
operation
in
the
event
of
a grip or trajectory problem.
This
is
indicated
by
flashing
of
this
warning
lamp
in
the
instru
-
ment
panel.
Intelligent traction control

F
Press
this
button,
located
near
the
steering
wheel.
If
the
indicator
lamp
in
the
button
comes
on,
this
indicates
that
these
systems
are
deactivated.
Depending
on
version,
your
vehicle
has
a
system
to
help
driving
on
snow:
intel
-
ligent traction control.
This
system
detects
situations
of
diffi
-
cult
surface
adhesion
that
could
make
it
difficult
to
move
of
f
or
make
progress
on
deep
fresh
snow
or
compacted
snow.
In these situations, the intelligent trac-
tion control
limits
the
amount
of
wheel
slip
to
provide
the
best
traction
and
trajectory
control
for
your
vehicle.
The
use
of
snow
tyres
is
strong-
ly
recommended
on
surfaces
of
-
fering
low
levels
of
adhesion. It
is
recommended
that
the
systems
be
reactivated
as soon as possible.

AIRBAGS
System designed to contribute towards improving
the safety of the occupants
(with
the
exception
of
the
rear
centre
passenger)
in
the
event
of
violent
colli-
sions.
The

supplement
the
ac
-
tion
of
the
force-limiting
seat
belts
(with
the
exception
of
the
centre
rear
pas
-
senger).
If

detection zones:
-
in

Impact detection zones
Deployment
of
one
or
more
of
the
airbags
is
accompanied
by
a
slight
emission
of
smoke
and
a
noise,
due
to
the
activation
of
the
pyrotechnic
cartridge
incor
-
porated
in the system.
This
smoke
is
not
harmful,
but
sensitive
individuals
may
experi
-
ence
slight irritation.
The
noise
of
detonation
related
to
the
deployment
of
one
or
more
airbags
may
result
in
a
slight
loss
of
hearing
for
a
short
time.
Front airbags
System which protects the driver and front
passenger in the event of a seri -
ous
front
impact
in
order
to
limit
the
risk
of
injury to the head and thorax.
The
driver's
airbag
is
fitted
in
the
centre
of
the
steering
wheel;
the
front
passen
-
ger's
airbag
is
fitted
in
the
dashboard
above
the glove box.
Deployment
The
airbags
are
deployed,
except
the passenger's
front
airbag
if
it
is
deactivat
-
ed,
in
the
event
of
a
serious
front
impact to
all
or
part
of
the
front
impact
zone
A, in
the
longitudinal
centreline
of
the
vehicle on
a
horizontal
plane
and
directed
from the
front to the rear of the vehicle.
The
front
airbag
inflates
between
the
tho
-
rax
and
head
of
the
front
occupant
of
the vehicle
and
the
steering
wheel,
driver's side,
and
the
dashboard,
passenger's side
to cushion their forward movement.
This
equipment
will
only
deploy
once.
If
a
second
impact
occurs
(during
the
same
or
a
subse
-
quent
accident),
the
airbag
will
not
be
deployed
again.

For the airbags to be fully
effective, observe the
following safety rules:
Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear
a
correctly
adjusted
seat
belt.
Do
not
leave
anything
between
the
occupants
and
the
airbags
(a
child,
pet,
object...).
This
could
hamper
the
operation
of
the
air
-
bags
or injure the occupants.
After
an
accident
or
if
the
ve
-
hicle
has
been
stolen
or
broken
into,
have
the
airbag
systems
checked.
All
work
on
the
airbag
sys
-
tem
must
be
carried
out
by
a
CITROËN
dealer
or
a
qualified
workshop.
Even if all of the precautions
mentioned
are
observed,
a
risk
of
injury
or
of
minor
burns
to
the
head,
chest
or
arms
when
an
air
-
bag
is
deployed
cannot
be
ruled
out.
The
bag
inflates
almost
in
-
stantly
(within
a
few
millis
econds)
then
deflates
within
the
same
time
discharging
the
hot
gas
via
openings
provided
for
this
pur
-
pose. Front airbags
Do
not
drive
holding
the
steering
wheel
by
its
spokes
or
resting
your
hands
on
the
centre part of the wheel.
Passengers
must not place their feet on the dashboard.
Do
not
smoke
as
deployment
of
the
airbags
can
cause
burns
or
the
risk
of
injury
from
a cigarette or pipe.
Never
remove or pierce the steering wheel or hit it violently.
Do
not
fit
or
attach
anything
to
the
steering
wheel
or
dashboard,
this
could
cause
injuries
with deployment of the airbags.
Lateral airbags
Use
only
approved
covers
on
the
seats,
compatible
with
the
deployment
the
lat
-
eral
airbags.
For
information
on
the
range
of
seat
covers
suitable
for
your
vehicle,
you
can contact a CITROËN dealer.
Refer
to the "Accessories" section.
Do
not
fix
or
attach
anything
to
the
seat
backs
(clothing...).
This
could
cause
injury
to the chest or arms if the lateral airbag is deployed.
Do
not
sit
with
the
upper
part
of
the
body
any
nearer
to
the
door
than
necessary
.
Curtain airbags
Do
not
fix
or
attach
anything
to
the
roof.
This
could
cause
injury
to
the
head
if
the
curtain
airbag is deployed.
If
fitted
on
your
vehicle,
do
not
remove
the
grab
handles
installed
on
the
roof,
they
play
a part in securing the curtain airbags.
