ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAMME (ESP)
Electronic stability programme (ESP)
incorporating the following systems:
- the anti-lock braking system (ABS) and the electronic brake force distri-
bution system (EBFD),
- the emergency braking assistance,
- the traction control (ASR),
- the dynamic stability control (DSC).
Definitions Anti-skid regulation (ASR)
The ASR system (also known as Trac-
tion Control) 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 directional
stability of the vehicle on acceleration.
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
electronic brake force distribution
system (EBFD)
This system improves the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when
braking and offers improved control, in
particular on poor or slippery road sur-
faces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the
event of emergency braking.
The electronic brake force distribution
system manages the braking pressure
wheel by wheel.
When this warning lamp comes
on, accompanied by an audible
signal and a message, it indi-
cates that there is a fault with the
ABS, which could cause loss of control of
the vehicle when braking.
When this warning lamp comes
on, coupled with the STOP
warning lamp, accompanied by
an audible signal and a mes-
sage, it indicates that there is a fault with
the electronic brake force distribution
(EBFD), which could cause loss of control
of the vehicle when braking.
You must stop as soon as it is safe
to do so.
In both cases, contact a PEUGEOT
d e a l e r o r a q u a l i fi e d w o r k s h o p .
When changing wheels (tyres
and rims), make sure that
these are approved for your
vehicle.
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 -
ing the pressure.

Dynamic stability control
(DSC) The DSC system offers excep-
tional safety in normal driving,
but this should not encourage
the driver to take extra risks or drive
at high speed.
The correct functioning of the system
depends on observation of the ma-
nufacturer's recommendations re-
garding the wheels (tyres and rims),
the braking components, the electron-
ic components and the assembly and
repair procedures used by PEUGEOT
dealers.
After an impact, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a ve-
hicle which is bogged down, stuck in
snow, on soft ground...), it may be ad-
visable to deactivate the DSC system,
so that the wheels can move freely and
regain grip.
Press the "ESP OFF"
button or, according to
version, turn the dial to
this position.
This warning lamp and the in-
dicator lamp on the button or
on the dial come on: the DSC
system no longer acts on the
operation of the engine.
Reactivation
The system is reactivated automatically
each time the ignition is switched back
o n o r f r o m 3 0 m p h ( 5 0 k m / h ) . Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible sig-
nal and a message on the mul-
tifunction screen, this indicates
a malfunction of the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have the
system checked.
T h i s i s i n d i c a t e d b y fl a s h i n g o f
this warning lamp in the instru-
ment panel.
Activation
This system is activated automatically
each time the vehicle is started.
It comes into operation in the event of a
grip or trajectory problem.
Press the "ESP OFF" but-
ton again or, according to
version, turn the dial to this
position, to reactivate it
manually.
