ABS ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
The ABS system improves vehicle stability
and handling during braking, particularly on
surfaces with poor adhesion (e.g. damaged
or slippery road surfaces).
Note: when changing a wheel (tyres
and rims), ensure that they meet the
manufacturer ’s requirements.
The anti-locking system automatically
intervenes when there is a risk of the wheels
locking.
The normal functioning of the ABS system
may be indicated by light vibrations on the
brake pedal.
When braking in an emergency, press
hard on the brake pedal without releasing
the force.
If the ABS warning lamp lights
up on the instrument panel, this
indicates a malfunction of the ABS
system, which could lead to a loss
of control of the vehicle when braking.
You must stop.
Contact a CITROËN dealer.
Good practice
The anti-lock braking system comes into
operation automatically when there is a risk
of wheel lock. It does not permit shorter
braking. On very slippery road surfaces
(ice, oil, etc.) the ABS may lengthen the
braking distances. In emergency braking,
do not hesitate to press the brake pedal
firmly, without releasing the pressure, even
on slippery roads, you will then be able to
continue to manoeuvre the vehicle to avoid
an obstacle.
