driver.
dynamic stability control
(dSc)
the electronic stability programme acts on
the brake of one or more wheels and on the
engine to keep the vehicle on the trajectory

required by the driver, within the limits of the
laws of physics.
With the DSC system, maintain course
without trying to countersteer.
operation
the DSC system is activated automatically


each time the vehicle is started.
operating fault
Illumination of this warning lamp,


accompanied by an audible signal
and confirmed by a message
in the instrument panel screen,
indicates a fault with the DSC system.
Have it checked by a P
eugeOt dealer or a
qualified workshop.
operation
this system is activated automatically every

time the vehicle is started.
In the event of a problem of adhesion or
trajectory, this system comes into play.
Switching off
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle
which is bogged down, stuck in snow,
on soft ground...), it may be advisable to
deactivate the ASR system, so that the
wheels can spin freely and regain grip.
-
Press this button, located in the
middle of the dashboard, to deactivate


the
system.
Anti-slip regulation (ASr)
Anti-slip regulation (also known as traction
control) optimises traction, avoiding wheel
spin by acting on the brakes of the driving
wheels and the engine.
If the button's warning lamp comes
on, accompanied by a message in the
instrument panel screen, this indicates that
the ASR system is deactivated.
It comes into operation in the
event of a grip or trajectory
problem.
this is indicated by flashing of this warning

operating faultIf this warning lamp comes on,


accompanied by an audible signal
and a message in the instrument
panel screen, this indicates a fault
with the ASR system.
Have it checked by a P
eugeOt dealer or a
qualified workshop. Good practice
the DSC and

ASR systems offer exceptional
safety in normal driving, but this should not
encourage the driver to take extra risks or
drive at high speed.
the correct operation of these systems


depend on observation of the manufacturer's
recommendations regarding the wheels
(tyres and rims), the braking components,
the electronic components and assembly
and repair procedures.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a P
eugeOt dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Load inertia control
the true total weight of a commercial vehicle
can vary considerably depending on the load
carried.
As a result, the centre of gravity of
the vehicle can move, both longitudinally
and in height.
All such variations have an effect on braking,
traction, the behaviour of the vehicle when
cornering and the tendency to overturn.
Load inertia control estimates the true
total weight of the vehicle by analysing its
behaviour under acceleration and braking.
this system then adapts the operation of


the DSC and ASR systems according to the
weight distribution in the vehicle. In critical
situations, your vehicle than remains more
securely on its intended trajectory.

GEnErAL PoIntS on AIrBAGS
the airbags have been designed to optimise
the safety of the occupants in the event of
a serious collision; they work in conjunction

with the force limiting seat belts.
In the event of a serious collision, electronic
detectors record and analyse any abrupt
deceleration of the vehicle:
-
in the event of a serious collision, the
airbags are deployed instantly and


contribute towards better protection of
occupants of the vehicle; immediately
after the impact, the airbags rapidly
deflate so as to not hinder visibility or
the possible exit by the occupants,
-
in the event of a less serious impact,
an impact to the rear and in certain


conditions of rollover, the airbags are not deployed; the seat belts alone contribute
towards providing protection in these
situations.
Airbags only operate when the ignition is
switched on.Front airbags
these are fitted in the centre of the steering
wheel for the driver and in the dashboard for
the front passengers.
they are deployed,


except the passenger's airbag if it has been
deactivated.
Deployment of the airbags is
accompanied by a slight discharge
of smoke and a noise, resulting from the
activation of the pyrotechnic charge included
in the system.
this smoke is not harmful but may be an


irritant to sensitive persons.
the noise of the detonation may result in a


slight loss of hearing for a short time.
