Electronic stability control
(ESC)
A set of the following Electronic Stability
systems:
-
a
nti-lock braking system (ABS) and
electronic brake force distribution (EBFD),
-
em

ergency braking assistance (EBA),
-

w
heel anti-slip regulation (ASR) or traction
control,
-
d

ynamic stability control (DSC).
-

t
railer stability assist (TSA).
Definitions
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of
emergency braking.
The electronic brake force distribution system
manages the braking pressure wheel by wheel.
Emergency braking assistance
In an emergency, this system enables you to
reach the optimum braking pressure 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 braking efficiency.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
This 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 directional stability of the vehicle
on acceleration.
Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If there is a difference between the path
f ollowed by the vehicle and that required by the
driver, this system 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.
Trailer stability assist (TSA)
These systems improve the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking
and contribute towards improved control in
corners, in particular on poor or slippery road
surfaces. This system allows control of the vehicle to be
retained when towing a
trailer, so as to avoid
the risk of snaking.
Anti-lock braking system
(ABS) and electronic brake
force distribution (EBFD)
The fixed illumination of this warning
lamp signals that there is a fault with
the ABS.
Illumination of this warning lamp,
linked with the STOP and ABS
warning lamps, accompanied by the
display of a
message and an audible
signal, signals that there is a
fault
with the electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD).
The vehicle retains conventional braking. Drive
carefully at moderate speed.
Contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Call on a

PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Safety

126
Normal operation of the ABS may make
itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake
pedal.
In emergency braking, press ver y
firmly and maintain this pressure.
When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
ensure that these are approved for your
vehicle.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or
a


qualified workshop.
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
w hich 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.
Reactivate the system when grip conditions
allow. Deactivation of the function is done
in the Vehicle/Driving
menu of the
touch screen.
The ASR system no longer acts on the
operation of the engine.
Reactivation
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
the touch screen.
It is confirmed by the display of a
message.
Operating fault
This is indicated by flashing of this
warning lamp in the instrument
panel. It is confirmed by the display of a
message.
Illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by the display of
a message and an audible signal,
indicates a
fault with the system.
Contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the systems checked.
Safety

127
ASR/DSC
These systems offer increased safety
in normal driving, but they should not
encourage the driver to take extra risks or
drive at high speed.
It is in conditions of reduced grip (rain,
snow, ice) that the risk of loss of grip
increases. It is therefore important for your
safety to keep these systems activated in
all conditions, and particularly in difficult
conditions.
The correct operation of these
systems depends on obser vation of
the manufacturer's recommendations
regarding as much the wheels (tyres and
rims), braking and electronic components
as the assembly and repair procedures
used by PEUGEOT dealers.
The use of snow tyres is recommended,
in order to be able to benefit from the
efficiency of these systems in winter
conditions.
In this case, it is essential to equip the
four wheels with tyres approved for your
vehicle.Trailer stability assist
When towing, this system reduces the risk of
the vehicle or trailer swaying.
Operation
The system is activated automatically when the
ignition is switched on.
The electronic stability control (ESC) must not
have any faults.
Between 37 and 99 mph (60 and 160 km/h), if
the system detects oscillations (snaking) in the
movement of the trailer, it acts on the brakes to
stabilise the trailer and, if necessary, reduces
engine power to slow down the vehicle.
The correction is signalled by the
flashing of this indicator lamp in the
instrument panel and illumination of
the brake lamps.
For information on the weights and towed
loads, refer to the "Technical data" section or
the registration certificate for your vehicle.
For advice on driving safely when To w i n g
a
trailer , refer to the corresponding section.
Malfunction
Should a fault occur with the system,
t his warning lamp comes on in the
instrument panel, accompanied by
the display of a
message and an
audible signal.
The trailer stability assist system offers
increased safety in normal driving,
provided that the recommendations on
towing a
trailer are obser ved. It should not
encourage the driver to take risks, such
as towing a
trailer in adverse operating
conditions (overloading, failure to obser ve
the trailer nose weight, worn or under-
inflated tyres, faulty braking system, etc.)
or drive at too high a
speed.
In certain cases, oscillation of the trailer
may not be detected by the ESC system,
particularly with a


light trailer.
When driving on slippery or poor sur faces,
the system may not be able to prevent
sudden snaking of the trailer.
If you continue to tow a
trailer, reduce your
speed and drive carefully!
Contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
