DRIVING YOUR 406 149
Do not use cruise control
on slippery roads or in
heavy traffic. THE ABS
ANTILOCK
BRAKING SYSTEM
When used with approved tyres in
good condition, the ABS increases
the stability and manoeuvrability of
your vehicle, particularly on poor or
slippery road surfaces.
The antilock braking system comes
into operation automatically when
there is a risk of wheel lock.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSISTANCE SYSTEM
In an emergency, this system
enables the optimum braking pres
sure to be reached more quickly,
thus reducing the stopping distance.
It is triggered according to the speed
of activation of the brake pedal. The
effect of this is a reduction in the
resistance of the pedal and an
increase in braking efficiency. The normal operation of the ABS
may make itself felt by slight
vibrations of the brake pedal.
In emergency braking, press
very firmly without releasing
the pressure.
