SAFETY
103
The ESP/ASR systems offer excep-
tional safety in normal driving, but
this should not encourage the driver
to take extra risks or drive at high
speed.
The correct functioning of these
systems depends on observation
of the manufacturer’s recommen-
dations regarding the wheels (tyres
and rims), the braking components,
the electronic components and the
PEUGEOT assembly and operation
procedures.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Disarming
In exceptional conditions (starting a
vehicle which is bogged down, stuck
in snow, on soft ground, ...), it may be
advisable to disarm the ASR and ESP
systems, so that the wheels can move
freely and regain grip.
Press the "ESP OFF" button, located
in the centre of the fascia.
If this warning light comes on on
the instrument panel and the in-
dicator light on the button comes
on, this indicates that the ASR
and ESP systems are disarmed.
Reactivation
These systems are reactivated auto-
matically each time the ignition is switched
back on or from 30 mph (50 km/h) (except
in the case of the 1.6 l 16V THP 175 bhp
petrol engine).
Press the "ESP OFF" button again
to reactivate them manually.
Operating fault
If this warning light comes on,
accompanied by an audible sig-
nal and a message on the multi-
function display, this indicates a
malfunction of these systems.
Have them checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
TRAJECTORY CONTROL
SYSTEMS
Activation
These systems are activated automatically
each time the vehicle is started.
Anti-skid regulation (ASR) and
electronic stability programme
(ESP)
The anti-skid regulation optimises
traction to prevent skidding of the
wheels, by acting on the brakes of the
driving wheels and on the engine.
The electronic stability programme acts
on the brake of one or more wheels and
on the engine to keep the vehicle on the
trajectory required by the driver.
They come into operation in
the event of a grip or trajectory
problem.
T h i s i s i n d i c a t e d b y fl a s h i n g o f t h i s
warning light on the instrument
panel.
Steering/ESP coupling
system (SSP)
This system optimises the stability of
the vehicle and its braking capacity by
combining the actions of the ESP and
electric power steering when braking on
surfaces on which the grip of the right-
hand and left-hand wheel differs.
It permits increased braking of the wheels
which are in contact with the section of
road offering the higher level of grip and,
anticipating the instability of the vehicle,
the application of a slight correction to
the turning angle of the wheels to assist
the driver in maintaining his trajectory.
