Safety
Group of supplementary systems which helpyou to obtain optimum braking in completesafety in emergency situations:


- anti-lock brakin
g system (ABS),

- electronic brake force distribution (EBFD),

- emergency braking assistance (EBA).

















Braking assistance systems


Anti-lock braking system
and electronic brake force
distribution

Linked systems which improve the stability andmanoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking,
in par ticular on poor or slippery surfaces.

Activation

The anti-lock braking system comes into
operation automatically when there is a risk of
wheel lock.
Normal operation of the ABS may make itself felt by slight vibration of the brake pedal.
Operating fault
Emergency braking assistance
System which, in an emergency, enables you
to obtain the optimum braking pressure more
quickly, thus reducing the stopping distance.
When braking in an emergency, press firmly without releasing the pressure.


When braking in an emergency, press very firmly without releasing thepressure.
When replacing wheels (tyres andrims), ensure that they conform to the manufacturer's recommendations. I
f this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signaland a message in the screen, it indicates a malfunction of the anti-lock braking
system which could result in loss of control of
the vehicle when braking.
I
f this warning lamp comes on,
together with the STOP
and ABSwarning lamps, accompanied by anaudible signal and a message in the screen, it indicates a malfunction of the electronic brake
force distribution which could result in loss of control of the vehicle when braking.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.In either case, contact a CITROËN dealer or aqualified workshop.
Activation
It is triggered by the speed at which the brake pedal is pressed.
The effect of this is a reduction in theresistance of the pedal and an increase in
braking efficiency.
Coasting with the engine off results in aloss of power assistance for braking.
