switching on of the lights on the left).
This is indicated by an audible signal
and lighting of the corresponding di-
rection indicator on the instrument
panel for a few seconds. If the parking lights are activated
when your vehicle switches to
economy mode, they will remain
on. However, you cannot acti-
vate the parking lights if your vehicle is
already in economy mode.

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 enables
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 ve-
hicle when braking.
When this warning light
comes on, connected to
the STOP and ABS warn-
ing lights, accompanied by
a buzzer and a message, it
indicates that there is a malfunction of
the electronic brake force distribution,
which can cause a loss of control of
the vehicle 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)
and braking system (EBFD)
