ABS ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
The ABS increases the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when
braking, particularly on poor or slippery road
surfaces.
Note: when changing wheels (tyres and
rims), make sure that they conform to the
manufacturer ’s recommendations.
The anti-lock braking system comes into
operation automatically when there is a risk
of wheel lock.
Normal operation of the ABS may make
itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake
pedal.
In emergency braking, press very firmly
without releasing the pressure.
If the ABS warning light on the
instrument panel comes on, this
indicates a malfunction of the
anti-lock braking system which
could result in a loss of control of the vehicle
on braking.
Stop immediately.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
Good practice
The anti-lock braking system comes into
operation automatically when there is a risk
of wheel lock. It does not permit shorter
braking. On very slippery road surfaces
(ice, oil, etc.) the ABS may lengthen the
braking distances. In emergency braking,
do not hesitate to press the brake pedal
firmly, without releasing the pressure, even
on slippery roads, you will then be able to
continue to manoeuvre the vehicle to avoid
an obstacle.
