ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
(ABS) AND ELECTRONIC
BRAKE FORCE DISTRIBUTION
(EBFD)
The ABS, in conjunction with the
electronic brake force distribution,
increases the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle on
braking, in particular on poor or

HORN
Press one of the spokes of the steering
w h e e l . When changing wheels (tyres and
rims), make sure that these are

The anti-lock braking system comes
into operation automatically when there
i s a r i s k o f w h e e l l o c k .
When this warning light
comes on, accompanied by
a buzzer and a message,
it indicates that there is a
malfunction of the ABS, which
can cause a loss of control of the

Stop immediately.
In both cases, consult a CITROËN
d e a l e r .
Normal operation of the ABS may
make itself felt by slight vibrations of

pressure.
ASSISTANCE SYSTEM (EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables
the optimum braking pressure to be
reached more quickly, press the pedal

This system does not remove the
need to have the tyre pressure
checked regularly (including the spare
wheel), to ensure that the dynamic
performance of the vehicle remains at
its best and to avoid premature wear
of the tyres, in particular in the case
of arduous driving (heavy load, high
