The traction control ASR offers addi -
tional safety, it is recommended that
you do not drive with the function disa-
bled. Correct this as soon as possible
by pressing switch 1 again.
nb : the function is reactivated auto -
matically when the ignition is switched

24 mph (40 km/h) is exceeded.
emergency brake assist
This system supplements the ABS
and helps reduce vehicle stopping dis-
tances.
Operating principle
The system is for detecting an emer -
gency braking situation. In this case,
the braking assistance immediately de-
velops maximum power and may trig -
ger ABS regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long as
the brake pedal is applied.
hazard warning lights switching on
These may light up in the event of rapid
deceleration.
Operating faults
When the system detects an operat -
ing fault the message “ Check brak-
ing system” appears on the instrument
panel along with the
© warning
light.
Consult an approved dealer.
braking anticipation
Depending on the vehicle, when you
rapidly release the accelerator, the
system anticipates the braking ma -
noeuvre in order to reduce stopping
distances.
Special cases
When using the cruise control:
– if you use the accelerator, when you
release it, the system may be trig -
gered;
– if you do not use the accelerator, the
system will not be triggered.
Disabling the ASr function
In some situations (driving on very wet
ground: snow, mud, etc. or driving with
snow chains fitted), the system may
reduce the engine output to limit wheel
-
spin. If this is not required, it is possible
to deactivate the function by pressing
switch 1.
The message “ Traction control off ” is
displayed on the instrument panel to
inform you.

crUiSe cOntrOl, SPeeD liMiter: cruise control function (4/4)
When the cruise control function is
put on standby, pressing switch 2
(+) reactivates the cruise control
function without taking into account
the stored speed: it is the speed at
which the vehicle is moving that is
taken into account.Putting the cruise control
on standby or switching it
off does not cause a rapid
reduction in speed: you
must brake by depressing the brake
pedal.
Putting the function on
standby
The function is set to standby if you:
– use the switch 4 (O);
– the brake pedal;
– move to neutral position.
In all three cases, the cruising speed
remains stored and the message
“Memorised ” appears on the instrument
panel.
Standby is confirmed when indicator
light
 goes out. returning to the cruising speed
If a speed is stored, it can be recalled,
once you are sure that the road con
-
ditions are suitable (traffic, road sur -
face, weather conditions, etc.). Press
switch 5 (R) if the vehicle speed is
above 20 mph (30 km/h).
When the stored speed is recalled, acti-
vation of the cruise control is confirmed
by the illumination of the
 warning
light.
nb : if the speed previously stored is
much higher than the current speed,
the vehicle will accelerate more rapidly
to reach this threshold.
Switching off the function
The cruise control function is deacti -
vated if you press switch 1: in this case
a speed is no longer stored. The two in-
strument panel warning lights
 and
 go out to confirm that the function is
deactivated.

locking the doors. If a body part
gets trapped, reverse the direction
of travel of the window as soon as
possible by pressing the relevant
switch.

Avoid resting any objects against
a half-open window: there is a risk
that the electric window could be
damaged.
