ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAMME (ESP)
The electronic stability programme
(ESP) incorporates the following sys-
tems:
- the anti-lock braking system (ABS) and the braking system (EBFD),
- the emergency braking assistance system,
- the traction control (ASR),
- the dynamic stability control (DSC).
Traction control (ASR)
The ASR system optimises traction in
order to avoid wheel slip by acting on
the brakes of the driving wheels and
on the engine. It also improves the
directional stability of the vehicle on
acceleration.
Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If there is a difference between the
path followed by the vehicle and that
required by the driver, the DSC moni-
tors each wheel and automatically acts
on the brake of one or more wheels
and on the engine to return the vehicle
to the required path, within the limits of
the laws of physics.
Operating modes
Definitions
Emergency braking assistance
system
In an emergency, this system ena-
bles you to reach the optimum braking
pressure more quickly and therefore
reduce the stopping distance.
It is triggered in relation to the speed
at which the brake pedal is pressed.
This is felt by a reduction in the resis-
tance of the pedal and an increase in
the effectiveness of the braking. When this warning light
comes on, accompanied by
a buzzer and a message, it
indicates that there is a mal-
function of the ABS, which
can cause a loss of control of the vehi-
cle when braking.
When this warning light comes
on, connected to the STOP
and ABS warning lights,
accompanied by a buzzer
and a message, it indicates
that there is a malfunction of the elec-
tronic brake force distribution, which
can cause a loss of control of the vehi-
cle when braking.

Stop immediately.
In both cases, consult a PEUGEOT
dealer.
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and braking system (EBFD)
This system improves the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when
braking and offers improved control,
in particular on poor or slippery road
surfaces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the
event of emergency braking.
The braking system provides integral
management of the braking pressure
wheel by wheel. Anti-lock braking system (ABS)

Dynamic stability control (DSC)
When changing wheels (tyres
and rims), make sure that
these are approved.
Normal operation of the ABS
may make itself felt by slight vibrations
of the brake pedal.

In emergency braking, press
very fi rmly without relea sing
the pressure. Operating fault
When a system malfunction occurs,
the warning light comes on accompa-
nied by an audible signal and a mes-
sage on the multifunction display.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the system checked.
The DSC offers improved
safety during normal driving
but should not encourage the
driver to take extra risks (late
braking) or drive at very high speeds.
Operation of the system is guaran-
teed on condition that the manufactu-
rer's instructions regarding the wheels
(tyres and rims), the braking compo-
nents, the electronic components and
the PEUGEOT network assembly and
maintenance/repair procedures are
complied with.
Following an impact, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Warning light on the instrument
panel.
The indicator light comes on.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting the
vehicle when it is stuck in mud, immo-
bilised in snow, on unstable ground…),
it may prove useful to deactivate the
DSC.

 Press the "ESP OFF" switch, lo-
cated on the centre console.
The switch light and the indicator light
come on: the DSC no longer acts on
the operation of the engine.

switched off,

 Automatic from 30 mph (50 km/h),

 Manual by pressing the switch
again.

Gear selection gate

 Move the lever in the gate to select
a position.
The indicator light corresponding to
the position selected appears on the
instrument panel screen.

P ark: to immobilise the vehicle and to
start the engine, with the handbrake on.

R everse: to reverse (select this posi-
tion with the vehicle stationary, engine
at idle).

N eutral: to start the engine and to park,
with the handbrake on.

Note: if position N is inadvertently en-
gaged while driving, allow the engine
to return to idle before engaging posi-
tion D then accelerate.

D rive: to drive in automatic mode.

M anual: to drive selecting the gears.

S: sport programme.

 : snow programme.
'PORSCHE TIPTRONIC SYSTEM' AUTOMATIC GEARBOX
The six speed automatic gearbox
offers, as required, the comfort of the
auto-adaptive programme enhanced
by a selection suited to dynamic
driving conditions: sport, or to driving
on a slippery road: snow.
However, manual selection is still pos-
sible using the gear lever.
Moving Off
With the engine running, move off from
position P :

 to exit position P, it is essential
to press the brake pedal,

 select position R , D or M , then
gradually release the pressure on
the brake pedal; the vehicle moves
off immediately.
To move off from position N :

 with your foot on the brake, release
the handbrake,

 select position R , D or M , then
gradually release the pressure on
the brake pedal; the vehicle moves
off immediately.
Starting the engine

 with the handbrake on, select posi-
tion P or N in the gate,

 turn the ignition key. Always keep your foot on the
brake on a steep incline.
When the engine is at idle,
brakes not applied, if posi-
tion R , D or M is selected, the vehicle
moves even without the accelerator
being pressed.

Do not leave children unsupervised
inside the vehicle, with position
R, D or M selected, with the en-
gine running, as the vehicle moves
even without the accelerator being
pressed.
With the ignition off, if the
lever is not in position P , an
audible signal is heard when
the driver's door is opened, or
after approximately 45 seconds. Move
the lever to position P . The audible
signal ceases.
