HANDBRAKE
Illumination of this warning
light and of the STOP
warn-
ing light, accompanied by
an audible signal (while the
vehicle is moving), indicates that the
handbrake is still applied or has not
been released fully.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING
SYSTEM (ABS) AND THE ELECTRONIC BRAKE FORCEDISTRIBUTION (EBFD)
The ABS, in conjunction with the
electronic brake force distribution,
increases the stability and manoeu-
vrability of your vehicle on braking,
in particular on poor or slippery road
surfaces.
Note:
when changing wheels (tyres
and rims), make sure that these are
approved.
The anti-lock braking system comes
into operation automatically when
there is a risk of wheel lock.
When this warning light comes
on, connected to the STOP
and ABS
warning lights, it
indicates that there is a mal-
function 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 CITROËN
dealer. When this warning light
comes on, accompanied by a
buzzer, it indicates that there
is a malfunction of the ABS,
which can cause a loss of control of
the vehicle when braking. Normal operation of the ABS may
make itself felt by slight vibrations
of the brake pedal.
In emergency braking, press
very fi rmly without releasing the
pressure.
Releasing
Pull the handle and press the button
to release the handbrake.
Applying
When parking, pull the handbrake to
immobilise your vehicle.

Front airbag malfunction
Disarming the passenger
airbag
To ensure the safety of your child,
it is essential to disarm the pas-
senger airbag when you install a
rear-facing child seat on the front
passenger seat. Otherwise, the
child would risk being killed or se-
riously injured if the airbag were
to infl ate.

airbag disarming switch 1
, turn it
to the "OFF"
position, then re-
move the key keeping the slot in
this position. The airbag warning light on
the instrument panel is lit
throughout the period of dis-
arming.
In the "OFF"
position, the passen-
ger airbag will not be triggered in the
event of an impact.
As soon as the child seat is removed,
turn the airbag slot to the "ON"
posi-
tion to re-activate the airbag and thus
ensure the safety of your passenger
in the event of an impact.
This is confi rmed by an indi-
cator light, accompanied by
a message on the display.
With the ignition on
(2nd notch), illumination of this
warning light indicates that the pas-
senger airbag is disarmed (switch in
the "OFF"
position).
If the two airbag warning
lights are lit continuously, do
not install a rear-facing child
seat. Consult a CITROËN
dealer.
