SAFETY
The ASC/TCL systems offer
exceptional safety in normal
driving, but this should not en-
courage the driver to take extra
risks or drive at high speed.
The correct functioning of these
systems depends on observation
of the manufacturer's recommen-
dations on:


- wheels (tyres and rims),

- braking components,

- electronic components,

- assembly and repair proce-
dures.
After an impact, have these sys-
tems checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.


Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a ve-
hicle which is bogged down, stuck in
snow, on soft ground, ...), it may be ad-
visable to deactivate the ASC system,
so that the wheels can move freely and
regain grip.


)
Press the "ASC OFF"
button, locat-
ed to the left of the steering wheel,
until the ASC OFF symbol appears
on the instrument panel screen.
The display of this symbol in the top
right corner of the instrument panel
screen indicates that the ASC and TCL
systems are deactivated.
Reactivation
These systems are not reactivated au-
tomatically above 30 mph (50 km/h).


)
Press the "ASC OFF"
button again
to reactivate them manually.
Switching off of the symbol in the top
right corner of the instrument panel
screen indicates the reactivation of the
ASC and TCL systems.

Operating fault
The displaying of this mes-
sage on the instrument panel
screen indicates a malfunc-
tion of these systems.
Contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop to have
the ASC/TCL systems checked.
TRAJECTORY CONTROL
SYSTEMS

Activation
These systems are activated automati-
cally each time the vehicle is started.
They operate when the vehicle speed is
higher than 10 mph (15 km/h).

Traction control and automatic
stability control
Traction control optimises traction to
prevent wheel spin, by acting on the
brakes of the driving wheels and on the
engine.
Automatic stability control acts on the
brake of one or more wheels and on the
engine to keep the vehicle on the tra-
jectory required by the driver.
They come into operation in
the event of a grip or trajectory
problem.
This is indicated by fl ashing
of this symbol on the instrument panel
screen.



Associated systems which guarantee
the directional stability of the vehicle
within the limits of the laws of physics:


- traction control (TCL),

- automatic stability control (ASC).

DRIVING
FOUR WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEMFOUR WH
WITH ELECTRONIC CONTROL WITH E

4WD AUTO (position 1)
The vehicle operates with four wheel
drive and provides optimum traction re-
gardless of the level of grip.
This is the vehicle's normal and regular
operating mode, the distribution of the
torque between the front and rear axles
is controlled automatically.
The distribution favours the front wheels,
the transfer of torque to the rear wheels
is managed electronically by the control
unit in relation to the level of grip, so
providing optimum road holding.
Three transmission modes are avail-
able and can be selected manually by
the driver in accordance with his re-
quirements.
You can change transmission mode
when stationary or while driving at a
speed below 60 mph (100 km/h)
.
The transmission mode can be selected
by turning the control A
.


Display in the instrument panel

The transmission mode is displayed
in the form of an intermittent display in
the instrument panel screen when the
transmission mode is selected.

Selecting the transmission
mode
The selection of this mode is
recommended when the level of
grip permits.

2WD (position 3)
The vehicle operates with front two
wheel drive.
This mode corresponds to use on a tar-
macked road on which the driver con-
siders that there is no risk of loss of grip
(dry road).

4WD LOCK (position 2)
The vehicle operates with four wheel
drive in this mode also.
It is recommended when grip is particularly
poor or diffi cult (sand, mud, slopes, ...). System which permits the selection of
a transmission mode in relation to the
driving conditions.
