electronic stability program
eSP with understeer control
and traction control ASr
electronic stability program eSP
This system helps you to keep control
of the vehicle in critical driving condi -
tions (avoiding an obstacle, loss of grip
on a bend, etc.).
Operating principle
A sensor in the steering wheel detects
the direction selected by the driver.
Other sensors throughout the vehicle
measure the actual direction.
The system compares driver input to
the actual trajectory of the vehicle and
corrects the trajectory if necessary by
controlling the braking of certain wheels
and/or engine power. In the event that
the system is engaged, indicator light
ù flashes on the instrument panel. Understeer control
This system optimises the action of the
ESP in the case of pronounced unders-
teering (loss of front axle road holding).
t
raction control ASr
This system helps to limit wheelspin of
the drive wheels and to control the ve-
hicle when pulling away accelerating or
decelerating.
Operating principle
Using the wheel sensors, the system
measures and compares the speed of
the drive wheels at all times and slows
down their over-rotation. If a wheel is
starting to slip, the system brakes au -
tomatically until the drive supplied be -
comes compatible with the level of grip
under the wheel again. Operating faults
When the system detects an operat
-
ing fault the message “Check ESP” and
warning light
© appear on the in-
strument panel. In this case, the ESP
and ASR are deactivated.
Consult an approved dealer.

The traction control ASR offers addi -
tional safety, it is recommended that
you do not drive with the function disa-
bled. Correct this as soon as possible
by pressing switch 1 again.
nb : the function is reactivated auto -
matically when the ignition is switched
on or when a speed of approximately
24 mph (40 km/h) is exceeded.
emergency brake assist
This system supplements the ABS
and helps reduce vehicle stopping dis-
tances.
Operating principle
The system is for detecting an emer -
gency braking situation. In this case,
the braking assistance immediately de-
velops maximum power and may trig -
ger ABS regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long as
the brake pedal is applied.
hazard warning lights switching on
These may light up in the event of rapid
deceleration.
Operating faults
When the system detects an operat -
ing fault the message “ Check brak-
ing system” appears on the instrument
panel along with the
© warning
light.
Consult an approved dealer.
braking anticipation
Depending on the vehicle, when you
rapidly release the accelerator, the
system anticipates the braking ma -
noeuvre in order to reduce stopping
distances.
Special cases
When using the cruise control:
– if you use the accelerator, when you
release it, the system may be trig -
gered;
– if you do not use the accelerator, the
system will not be triggered.
Disabling the ASr function
In some situations (driving on very wet
ground: snow, mud, etc. or driving with
snow chains fitted), the system may
reduce the engine output to limit wheel
-
spin. If this is not required, it is possible
to deactivate the function by pressing
switch 1.
The message “ Traction control off ” is
displayed on the instrument panel to
inform you.

crUiSe cOntrOl, SPeeD liMiter: cruise control function (4/4)
When the cruise control function is
put on standby, pressing switch 2
(+) reactivates the cruise control
function without taking into account
the stored speed: it is the speed at
which the vehicle is moving that is
taken into account.Putting the cruise control
on standby or switching it
off does not cause a rapid
reduction in speed: you
must brake by depressing the brake
pedal.
Putting the function on
standby
The function is set to standby if you:
– use the switch 4 (O);
– the brake pedal;
– move to neutral position.
In all three cases, the cruising speed
remains stored and the message
“Memorised ” appears on the instrument
panel.
Standby is confirmed when indicator
light
goes out. returning to the cruising speed
If a speed is stored, it can be recalled,
once you are sure that the road con
-
ditions are suitable (traffic, road sur -
face, weather conditions, etc.). Press
switch 5 (R) if the vehicle speed is
above 20 mph (30 km/h).
When the stored speed is recalled, acti-
vation of the cruise control is confirmed
by the illumination of the
warning
light.
nb : if the speed previously stored is
much higher than the current speed,
the vehicle will accelerate more rapidly
to reach this threshold.
Switching off the function
The cruise control function is deacti -
vated if you press switch 1: in this case
a speed is no longer stored. The two in-
strument panel warning lights
and
go out to confirm that the function is
deactivated.

Brake fluid level
The level should be read with the engine
switched off and on level ground. This
should be checked frequently, and im -
mediately if you notice even the slight-
est loss in braking efficiency.
Consult your approved dealer at
once if you notice an abnormal or
repeated drop in any of the fluid
levels.
t opping up
After any operation on the hydraulic cir-
cuit, a specialist must replace the fluid.
Only use fluids approved by our
Technical Department (and taken from
a sealed container).
Replacement intervals
Refer to the Maintenance Document for
your vehicle.
Level 3
It is normal for the level to drop as
the linings become worn, but it should
never drop below the MIn line.
If you wish to check the disc wear your-
self, you should obtain the document
explaining the checking procedure from
our network or from the manufacturer’s
website.
