2011 Peugeot 3008 Hybrid 4 brakes

ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAMME (ESP)

Electronic stability programme (ESP)
incorporating the following systems:


- the anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and the electronic brake force distri-
bution system (EBFD),

- the emergency braking assistance,

- the traction control (ASR),

- the dynamic stability control (DSC).


Definitions

Anti-skid regulation (ASR)
The ASR system (also known as Trac-
tion Control) 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 re-
quired by the driver, the DSC monitors
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.

Emergency braking assistance
In an emergency, this system enables
you to reach the optimum braking pres-
sure 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 resistance of
the pedal and an increase in the effec-
tiveness of the braking.

Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and
electronic brake force distribution
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 sur-
faces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the
event of emergency braking.
The electronic brake force distribution
system manages the braking pressure
wheel by wheel.

When this warning lamp
comes on, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message,
it indicates that there is a fault
with the ABS, which could cause loss of
control of the vehicle when braking.
When this warning lamp comes
on, coupled with the STOP

warning lamp, accompanied
by an audible signal and a
message, it indicates that there is a fault
with the electronic brake force distribu-
tion (EBFD), which could cause loss of
control of the vehicle when braking.

You must stop as soon as it is safe
to do so.

In both cases, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
When changing wheels (tyres
and rims), make sure that
these are approved for your
vehicle.
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.

CHECKS
162








Particle emission filter (Diesel)

It is imperative that the maintenance of
the particle emission fi lter is carried out
by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Following prolonged opera-
tion of the vehicle at very low
speed or at idle, you may, in
exceptional circumstances, notice
the emission of water vapour at the
exhaust on acceleration. This does
not affect the behaviour of the vehi-
cle or the environment.


Dust filter/Anti-odour filter
(activated carbon)
Your vehicle is fi tted with a fi lter which
traps certain dust and limits odours in
the ventilation and air conditioning.
Refer to the Warranty and Maintenance
Record for its replacement interval.
Do not hesitate to change it if you no-
tice unpleasant odours, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
A clogged passenger compartment fi lter
may reduce the performance of the air
conditioning system and produce un-
pleasant odours.


Only use products recom-
mended by PEUGEOT or
products of equivalent quality
and specifi cations.
In order to optimise the opera-
tion of units as important as the brak-
ing system, PEUGEOT selects and
offers very specifi c products.
To avoid damaging the electrical
units, the use of a high pressure
washer in the engine compartment is
strictly prohibited
.


Brake disc wear














Brake pads

Brake wear depends on the
style of driving, particularly in
the case of vehicles used in
town, over short distances. It
may be necessary to have the
condition of the brakes checked, even
between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a
drop in the brake fl uid level indicates
that the brake pads are worn.
For information on checking
brake disc wear, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.


6-speed electronic gear control
gearbox
The gearbox does not re-
quire any maintenance (no oil
change).

Refer to the Warranty and
Maintenance Record for de-
tails of the checking interval
for this component.






















Electric parking brake

This system does not require any rou-
tine servicing. However, in the event of
a problem, have the system checked by
a PEUGEOT dealer.
For more information, see
"Driving - Electric parking
brake - § Operating faults".






The hybrid system is inactive during
regeneration of the particle emis-
sions fi lter.
