The braking circuit is faulty. You must stop immediately where it is safe to do so.
Park, switch off the ignition and contact a P E U G E O T d e a l e r .

The electronic brake force distribution (EBFD) is faulty.
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)
fi x e d . The anti-lock braking system is faulty.
The vehicle retains conventional braking without assistance.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAMME (ESP)
Electronic stability programme (ESP)
incorporating the following systems:
- the anti-lock braking system (ABS) and the braking system (EBFD),
- the emergency braking assistance,
- the traction control (ASR),
- the dynamic stability control (DSC).
Definitions Traction control (ASR)
The ASR system optimises traction in
order to avoid wheel slip by acting on
the brakes of the driving wheels and on
the engine. It also improves the direc-
tional stability of the vehicle on accel-
eration.
Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If there is a difference between the path
followed by the vehicle and that re-
quired by the driver, the DSC monitors
each wheel and automatically acts on
the brake of one or more wheels and
on the engine to return the vehicle to
the required path, within the limits of the
laws of physics.
Emergency braking assistance
In an emergency, this system enables
you to reach the optimum braking pres-
sure more quickly and therefore reduce
the stopping distance.
It is triggered in relation to 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 effec-
tiveness of the braking.
Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and
braking system (EBFD)
This system improves the stability and ma-
noeuvrability of your vehicle when braking
and offers improved control, in particular
on poor or slippery road surfaces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the
event of emergency braking.
The braking system provides integral
management of the braking pressure
wheel by wheel.
Operation
When this warning light comes
o n , a c c o m p a n i e d b y a b u z z e r
and a message, it indicates
that there is a malfunction of
the ABS, which can cause a loss of con-
trol of the vehicle when braking.
When this warning light comes
on, connected to the STOP
warning light, accompanied by
a b u z z e r a n d a m e s s a g e , i t i n -
dicates that there is a malfunction of the
electronic brake force distribution (EBFD),
which can cause a loss of control of the
vehicle when braking.
Stop immediately.
In both cases, consult a PEUGEOT
dealer.
When changing wheels (tyres
and rims), make sure that
these are approved.
Normal operation of the ABS may
make itself felt by slight vibrations of
the brake pedal.
In emergency braking, press
v e r y fi r m l y w i t h o u t r e l e a s i n g
the pressure.

"GRIP CONTROL"
ESP mode
Place the dial in this position. Snow mode
Special patented traction control sys-
tem which improves traction on snow,
mud and sand.
This system is combined with all-sea-
s o n M + S ( M u d a n d S n o w : 2 1 5 / 6 0 R 1 6 )
tyres which offer an excellent compro-
mise between safety, grip and traction.
This equipment, the operation of which
has been optimised in each situation,
allows you to manoeuvre in most condi-
tions of poor grip (encountered during
touring use).
Pressing the accelerator pedal should
b e s u f fi c i e n t t o a l l o w t h e s y s t e m t o u s e
the power of the engine. The electron-
ics will ensure optimum management
of the various parameters. Phases of
operation with a high engine speed are
completely normal.
Each time the ignition is switched off,
the system returns to standard mode
(ESP).
Standard mode which is calibrated for a
low level of skidding, based on different
conditions of grip encountered on the
road.
Mode which adapts its strategy to the
conditions of grip encountered for each
of the two front wheels, on moving off.
When moving, the system optimises
the skidding to guarantee the best ac-
celeration possible in relation to the grip
available.
Place the dial in this position.
