electronic stability control (eS C)
Definitions
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
this system improves the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking
and contributes towards improved control on
corners, in particular on poor or slippery road
surfaces.
th

e ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of
emergency braking.
th

e e
B
FD manages the braking pressure
wheel by wheel.
Emergency braking assistance
(EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables you to
reach the optimum braking pressure more
quickly and therefore reduce the stopping
distance.
It is triggered according to the speed at which
the brake pedal is pressed.
t
h
is is felt by a
reduction in the resistance of the pedal and an
increase in the effectiveness of the braking.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
the ASR system (also known as tr action
Control) optimises traction in order to limit
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 required 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.

Snow driving assistance
(Intelligent Traction Control)
Your vehicle has a system to help driving on
snow: Intelligent Traction Control.
th
is automatic system continuously checks
for situations of difficult sur face adhesion that
could make it difficult to move off or make
progress on deep fresh snow or compacted
snow.
In these situations, Intelligent Traction
Control limits the amount of wheel slip to
provide the best traction and trajectory control.
In extremely severe conditions (deep snow,
mud…), it can be useful to temporarily
deactivate the wheel anti-slip regulation
system to allow a degree of wheel spin and so
recover grip.
It is recommended that the system be
reactivated as soon as possible.
Snow tyres are strongly recommended on
sur faces offering low levels of adhesion.
Anti-lock braking system
(ABS) and electronic brake
force distribution (EBFD)
Operation
In emergency braking, press
very firmly without releasing the
pressure. 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.
th

e fixed illumination of this warning
lamp indicates that there is a fault
with the ABS.
When this warning lamp comes on,
coupled with the STOP and ABS warning
lamps, accompanied by an audible signal
and a message, it indicates that there
is a fault with the electronic brake force
distribution (
eB

FD).
the vehicle retains conventional braking. Drive
carefully at moderate speed.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In both cases, have the system checked by a
P
e

uge
Ot
dealer or a qualified workshop as
soon as possible.
