SAFETY

ing wheel.
HAZARD WARNING LIGHTS
Press the button, the direction indica-
t o r s fl a s h .
They can operate with the ignition off.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS) AND EBFD AND CSC * BRAKING SYSTEMS
The ABS, in conjunction with the
EBFD and CSC * braking systems,
increases the stability and manoeu-
vrability of your vehicle on braking
and provides improved control, in
particular on poor or slippery road
surfaces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the
event of emergency braking.
The EBFD and CSC * systems pro-
vide full control of the braking pres-
sure wheel by wheel. A distribution
between:
- the front and the rear in the case of the EBFD (Electronic Brake
Force Distribution),
- the left and the right in the case of the CSC * (Cornering Stability
Control).
When the vehicle is being
driven, illumination of this
warning light indicates that
the handbrake is still on or has
not been properly released.
When parking on a slope,
direct your wheels towards
the pavement and pull the
handbrake.
HANDBRAKE
Applying
Pull the handbrake to immobilise
your vehicle.
Note: when changing wheels
(tyres), make sure that these
are approved.
The anti-lock braking system
comes into operation automatically
when there is a risk of wheel lock.
* The CSC system is linked with the E B F D o n v e h i c l e s w h i c h a r e n o t fi t -
ted with ASR/ESP systems.
Releasing
Pull on the handle and press the but-
ton to release the handbrake.

SAFETY When this warning light
comes on, it indicates that
there is a malfunction of the
ABS, which can cause a
loss of control of the vehicle
when braking.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
When these warn-
ing lights come on
s i m u l t a n e o u s l y,
it indicates that
there is a malfunc-
tion of the braking system or that the
handbrake has not been released
fully, which can cause a loss of con-
trol of the vehicle when braking.
Stop immediately.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
Normal operation of the ABS
may make itself felt by slight
vibrations of the brake pedal.
In emergency braking, press
v e r y fi r m l y w i t h o u t r e l e a s i n g
the pressure. TRACTION CONTROL (ASR)
AND DYNAMIC STABILITY
CONTROL (ESP)
These systems are linked and sup-
plement the ABS.
The ASR system optimises drive to
prevent the wheels skidding, by act-
ing on the brakes of the driving wheels
and on the engine. It also allows the
directional stability of the vehicle to
be improved on acceleration.
If there is a variation between the tra-
jectory followed by the vehicle and
that required by the driver, the ESP
system automatically acts on the
brake of one or more wheels and on
the engine to put the vehicle back on
course, within the limits of the laws
of physics.
Operating check
Operation of the ASR
and ESP systems When one of these two
systems is operating, this
warning light comes on. When a malfunction of the
systems occurs, this warn-
ing light comes on.
The ASR/ESP systems of-
fer exceptional safety dur-
ing normal driving, but this
should not encourage the
driver to take extra risks or drive at
high speed.
Correct operation of these systems
depends on observation of the man-
ufacturer's recommendations re-
garding the wheels (tyres and rims),
the braking components and the
electronic components as well as the
CITROËN assembly and operation
procedures.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a CITROËN dealer.
Activation of the ESP system is also
accompanied by an audible signal. Contact a CITROËN dealer to have
the systems checked.
