ABS system
The ABS system enhances your safety by preventing the wheels from locking in the event of sud-den braking or in conditions of poor road adherence. It enables you to retain control of the steer-ing.
The functioning capability of all the electrical components essen-tial to the ABS is monitored elec-tronically before and during your journey. The ABS warning lamp lights up when you switch on the ignition: it should go out after a few seconds.
If the monitoring warning lamp does not go out, that means that the ABS has disconnected because there is a fault. Also, the fact that the monitoring warning lamp comes on during the jour-ney shows that the ABS system is inactive. In both cases, the normal braking system remains effi cient, exactly as on a vehicle without ABS. However, in order for the security associated with the cor-rect functioning of the ABS to be restored, the vehicle should be examined as soon as possible by a CITROËN dealer.examined as soon as possible by examined as soon as possible by
On roads with poor adherence (chippings, snow, ice etc.), it is always imperative to drive with prudence.
If the parking brake is released, the lighting of this warning lamp along with the STOP warning lamp indicates an insuffi cient level of brake fl uid or a malfunction of the braking distribution.
It is essential to stop the vehi-cle.
Consult a CITROËN dealer as soon as possible.
System of emergency braking assistance
The emergency braking assistance system allows you, in an emer-gency, to achieve the optimum braking pressure more quickly, thereby reducing the stopping dis-tance. It is triggered by the speed of your action on the brake pedal, which reduces its resistance. To prolong this action of the emer-gency braking assistance system, simply keep your foot on the brake pedal.

MAXIMUM APPLICATION
If necessary, you can utilise maxi-mum application of the parking brake. It is obtained by means of a long pull on control A, until you see the message “Maximum park-ing brake application” and a beep is heard.
Maximum application is indispen-sable:
In the case of a vehicle towing a caravan or a trailer, if the auto-matic functions are activated but you are applying the park-ing brake manually.
When the gradient you are parked on is variable in its effect (e.g. on a ferry, in a lorry, during towing).Note:
In the case of towing, a loaded vehicle or parking on a gradient, turn the front wheels towards the pavement and engage a gear when you park.
After maximum application, the release time will be longer.

Parking brake
The parking brake is engaged, with the vehicle stationary, by pull-ing on the lever with a force appro-priate to the slope.
To facilitate the action on the lever, you are recommended to press the brake pedal at the same time.
In all circumstances, as a pre-cautionary measure, engage fi rst gear.
On steep gradients, turn the steer-ing towards the pavement.
To release the parking brake, press on the end of the lever whilst pulling it then lower it fully.
The warning lamp comes on if the parking brake is engaged or not fully released.
If the parking brake is released, the lighting of this warning lamp along with the STOP warning lamp indicates an insuffi cient level of brake fl uid or a malfunction of the braking distribution.
It is essential to stop the vehi-cle.
Consult a CITROËN dealer as soon as possible.
