checked when the tyres are cold,
at least once a month. Low tyre pressures increase fuel
consumption.

cation of your vehicle.

A. Vehicle identifi cation number (VIN)
under the bonnet.
This number is engraved on the body-
work near the damper mounting.
B. Vehicle identifi cation number on
the dashboard.
This number is indicated on a self-
adhesive label which is visible through
the windscreen.

C. Manufacturer's label.
The VIN is indicated on a self-destroying
label affi xed to the left hand centre pillar.
D. Tyre/paint label.
This label is affi xed to the left hand centre
pillar.
It bears the following information:
- the tyre pressures, for unladen and laden conditions,
- the wheel rim and tyre sizes,
- the brands of tyre recommended by the manufacturer,
- the spare tyre infl ation pressure,
- the paint colour code.

SAFETY
BRAKING ASSISTANCE
SYSTEMS
Group of supplementary systems which
help you to obtain optimum braking in
complete safety in emergency situa-
tions:
- anti-lock braking system (ABS),
- electronic brake force distribution (EBFD),
- emergency braking assistance (EBA). Anti-lock braking system
and electronic brake force
distribution
Linked systems which improve the sta-
bility and manoeuvrability of your vehicle
when braking, in particular on poor or
slippery surfaces.
Activation
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 vibration of the brake
pedal.
When braking in an emergency,
press very fi rmly without releasing
the pressure.
Operating fault In either case, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the
multifunction screen, it indicates a mal-
function of the anti-lock braking system
which could result in loss of control of
the vehicle when braking. If this warning lamp comes on,
together with the
STOP and

ABS warning lamps, accompa-
nied by an audible signal and a message
in the multifunction screen, it indicates a
malfunction of the electronic brake force
distribution which could result in loss of
control of the vehicle when braking.

You must stop as soon as it is safe
to do so.
When replacing wheels (tyres
and rims), ensure that they con-
form to the manufacturer's re-
commendations.
Emergency braking assistance
System which, in an emergency, en-
ables you to obtain the optimum braking
pressure more quickly, thus reducing the
stopping distance.
Activation
It is triggered by the speed at which the
brake pedal is pressed.
The effect of this is a reduction in the
resistance of the pedal and an increase
in braking effi ciency.
When braking in an emergency,
press fi rmly without releasing
the pressure.

CALL
This system allows you to make an
emergency or assistance call to the
emergency services or to the dedicated
