Intelligent traction control
system
Depending on version, your vehicle has a
system to help driving on snow: intelligent
traction control.
This system detects situations of poor sur face
grip that could make it difficult to move off
or make progress on deep fresh snow or
compacted snow.In these situations, the intelligent traction
control
limits the amount of wheel spin to
provide the best traction and trajectory control
for your vehicle.
The use of snow tyres is strongly
recommended on sur faces offering low
levels of adhesion.
Anti-slip regulation
(ASR) / Dynamic stability
control (DSC)
Operation
These systems are activated automatically
every time the vehicle is started.
They come into operation in the event of a
problem with grip or trajectory.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle
which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft
ground, etc.), it may be advisable to deactivate
the ASR system, so that the wheels can turn
freely and regain grip. Deactivation of the function is done
in the Vehicle / Driving
menu of the
touch screen.
This is indicated by flashing of this
warning lamp in the instrument panel. Reactivate the system when grip conditions
allow.
It is confirmed by the display of a message.
The ASR system no longer acts on the
operation of the engine.

The ASR system is reactivated automatically
every time the ignition is switched back on or
from 31
mph (50 km/h).
Below 31
mph (50 km/h), you can reactivate it
manually:
Reactivation of the function is done
from the Vehicle / Driving menu of
