2013 Citroen DS5 brake

Ty r e u n d e r - i nfl ation detection System which automatically checks the pressure of the tyres while driving.
Sensors fitted in each valve trigger a warning in
the event of malfunction (speed above 12 mph(20 km/h)).
The spare wheel is not fitted with a sensor.

All repairs and changing of tyres on a wheel fitted with this system must becarried out by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If, when changing a tyre, you install a wheel which is not detected by your vehicle (example: fitting of snow tyres),you must have the system reinitialised by a CITROËN dealer or a qualifiedworkshop.
This message is also displayed whenone of the wheels is away from thevehicle (being repaired) or when one or more wheels without a sensor are fitted.


The tyre under-inflation detectionsystem is an aid to driving which doesnot replace the need for the driver to bevigilant or to drive responsibly.

This system does not avoid the needto have the tyre pressures checkedregularly (refer to "Identification markings") to ensure that the optimumdynamic per formance of the vehicle is maintained and prevent premature wear of the tyres, particularly in arduousdriving conditions (heavy load, highspeed). The tyre pressures must be checked cold, at least once a month. Remember to check the pressure of the spare wheel.

The tyre under-inflation detectionsystem may experience temporary inter ference due to electromagnetic signals on a frequency close to thatused by the system.
A message appears in the instrument panel screen, accompanied by an audible signal,
to identify the wheel concerned.
Under-infl ated tyre
This warning lamp andthe STOPwarning lamp come on, accompanied by an audible signal and a message in the
instrument panel screen identifying the wheelconcerned. )Stop immediately, avoiding any sudden
movement of the steering wheel and the brakes.) Change the damaged wheel (puncturedor very deflated tyre), and have the tyre
pressure checked as soon as possible.


Puncture

A message appears in the instrument panel
screen, accompanied by an audible signal,
to identi
fy the wheel or wheels which are not
detected or to indicate a fault in the system.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to replace the faulty sensor(s).


Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
)Check the tyre pressures as soon as possible. This check must be carried out when the tyres are cold.

173Safety
Electronic Stability Programme incorporating
the following systems:


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

- the emergency braking assistance,

- the anti-slip regulation (ASR) or tractioncontrol,

- the dynamic stability control (DSC).






























Electronic stability programme (ESP)
Definitions
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 par ticular on poor or slippery 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.
Emergency braking assistance
In an emergency, this system enables you to reach the optimum braking pressure 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 effectiveness of the braking.

Anti-slip regulation (ASR)

The ASR system (also known as Traction Control) optimises traction in order to avoid
wheel slip b
y acting on the brakes of the drivingwheels and on the engine. It also improves
the directional stability of the vehicle onacceleration.


Dynamic stability control (DSC)

If there is a difference between the path followed by the vehicle and that required bythe 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.

Intelligent traction control
s
ystem ("Snow motion")
Your vehicle has a system to help driving onsnow: intelligent traction control.This system detects situations of difficult surface adhesion that could make it difficult to move off or make progress on deep fresh snow
or compacted snow.In these situations, the intelligent traction control
limits the amount of wheel slip to provide the best traction and trajectory control
for your vehicle.

Operation


Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution
(EBFD)
In emergency braking, press very firmly without releasing the pressure.

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. When this warnin
g 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 whenbraking.
When this warnin
g lamp comes on, coupled with the STOPwarning lamp,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message, it indicates that
th
ere is a fault with the electronic brake forcedistribution (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 CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop. The use o
f snow tyres is strongly recommended on surfaces offering low levels of adhesion.

This kit is installed in the storage box, under the boot floor.
Complete system consisting of a compressor
and a sealant car tridge which permits
temporary repair of a tyre so that you can rdrive to the nearest garage.
It is designed to repair most punctures which could affect the tyre, located on the tyre tread
or shoulder.

Practical information
Removing a wheel

Parking the vehicle

Immobilise the vehicle where it does notblock traffic: the ground must be level, stable and not slippery. Apply the parking brake unless it has been programmed to automatic mode, switch off the ignition and engage firstgear *
to block the wheels. Check that the braking warning lamp and the Pwarning lamp in the parkingbrake control lever come on.
The occupants must get out of the vehicle and wait where they are safe.
Never go underneath a vehicle raised using a jack; use an axle stand.
