ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAMME (ESC)

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
(EBFD)
This system improves the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when
braking and provides improved control
in corners, in particular on poor or slip-
pery road surfaces.
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 releas-
ing the pressure.



Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and
electronic brake force distribution
(EBFD)
Electronic Stability Programme (ESC:
Electronic Stability Control) incorporat-
ing the following systems:


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

- the emergency braking assistance,

- the anti-slip regulation (ASR) or
traction control,

- the dynamic stability control (DSC).

CHECKS

Particle emission filter (Diesel)

As soon as the traffi c condi-
tions permit, regenerate the
fi lter by driving at a speed of
at least 40 mph (60 km/h) until the
warning lamp goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, this in-
dicates a low additive level.

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 check-
ing brake disc wear, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.







6-speed electronic gearbox

The gearbox does not re-
quire any maintenance (no oil
change).
Refer to the servicing booklet
for details of the checking in-
terval for this component.
















Electric parking brake

This system does not require any routine ser-
vicing. However, in the event of a problem,
have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.


For more information, refer to
the "Electric parking brake -
Operating faults" section.






The 100% electric mode is not available
during regeneration of the particle emis-
sions fi lter. The start of saturation of the
particle fi lter is indicated by
the temporary illumination
of this warning lamp accom-
panied by a message in the
multi-function screen.

On a new vehicle, the fi rst particle
fi lter regeneration operations may be
accompanied by a "burning" smell,
which is perfectly normal.
Following prolonged operation 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 vehicle
or the environment.






















Only use products recom-
mended by PEUGEOT or
products of equivalent quality
and specifi cation.
In order to optimise the operation of
units as important as the braking sys-
tem, 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
