2011 Peugeot 3008 Hybrid 4 brake

30

On starting the vehicle: with the gear le-
ver in position N
, press the brake pedal
and turn the ignition key to activate the
hybrid system.
This lamp comes on when the vehicle is
ready to move off ("Auto" mode is on by
default) and so the driver can press the
accelerator.
This lamp comes on more or less in-
stantly but may take a few seconds in
some case (in particular, the time need-
ed for pre-heating the Diesel engine in
cold weather).
READY LAMP


When stationary, ensure that
you switch off the ignition and
the Ready
lamp is off when
leaving the vehicle. Otherwise
the hybrid system will remain active.
See paragraph "Under bonnet pre-
cautions/warnings".

According to country. Indicator and warning lamps

Visual indicators informing the driver
that a system is in operation (operation
or deactivation indicator lamps) or of the
occurrence of a fault (warning lamp).

When the ignition is switched on
Certain warning lamps come on for a
few seconds when the vehicle's ignition
is switched on.
When the engine is started, these same
warning lamps should go off.
If they remain on, before moving off, refer to the
information on the warning lamp concerned.


Associated warnings
The illumination of certain warning
lamps may be accompanied by an au-
dible signal and a message in the multi-
function screen.
The warning lamps may come
on continuously (fi xed) or
fl ash.
Certain warning lamps may come on
in two different modes. Only by re-
lating the type of illumination to the
operating status of the vehicle can it
be ascertained whether the situation
is normal or whether a fault has oc-
curred.

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.

The electric parking brake combines
2 operational modes:


- Automatic application/release

Application is automatic when the
engine stops, release is automatic
on use of the accelerator (activated
by default),

- Manual application/release

The parking brake can be applied/
released manually by pulling control
lever A
.


Deactivation is recommended in
particularly cold conditions (ice)
and during towing (breakdown,
caravan...). Refer to the "Manual
release" paragraph.



Programming the mode
Depending on the country of registration
of the vehicle, the automatic application
when the engine is switched off and the
automatic release when you press the
accelerator can be deactivated.
If this warning lamp in the in-
strument panel comes on, the
automatic mode is deactivated. The system can be ac-
tivated/deactivated by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
The parking brake is then applied and
released manually. When the driver's
door is opened, there is an audible beep
and a message is displayed if the brake
is not applied.


Do not place any object (packet
of cigarettes, telephone, ...) be-
hind the electric brake control.

137
With the vehicle stationary, to apply the
parking brake whether the engine is
running or off, pull
on control lever A
.
The application of the parking brake is
confi rmed by:


-
lighting of the braking warn-
ing lamp and of the warning
lamp P
in the control lever A
,

When the driver’s door is opened with
the engine running, there is an audible
signal and a message is displayed if
the parking brake has not been applied,
unless the gear lever is in position P

(Park).
Manual release

With the ignition on or the engine run-
ning, to release the parking brake, press

on the brake
pedal
or the accelerator,
pull then release
control lever A
.
The full application of the parking brake
is confi rmed by:


-
extinction of the braking warn-
ing lamp and of the warning
lamp P
in control lever lever A
,

If you pull control lever A
with-
out pressing the brake pedal,
the parking brake will not be
released and a warning lamp
will come on in the instrument
panel.
Manual applicationMaximum application

If necessary, you can utilise maximum
application
of the parking brake. It is
obtained by means of a long pull
on
control lever A
, until you see the mes-
sage "Handbrake on" and an audible
signal is heard.

In the case of towing, a loaded
vehicle or parking on a gradient,
make a maximum application
of the parking brake then turn the front
wheels towards the pavement and en-
gage a gear when you park.
After a maximum application, the re-
lease time will be longer.


Before leaving the vehicle,
check that parking brake
warning lamp in the instrument
panel is on fi xed, not fl ashing.

Maximum application is essential:



- in the case of a vehicle towing a
caravan or a trailer, if the automatic
functions are activated but you are
applying the parking brake manually,

- when the gradient you are parked
on is variable in its effect (e.g. on a
ferry, in a lorry, during towing),

- display of the message
"Handbrake on".
- display of the message
"Handbrake off".
