Trajectory control systems
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
and dynamic stability
control (DSC)
The anti-slip regulation (also known as traction control)   optimises   traction   to   prevent   skidding  
o

f   the   wheels,   by   acting   on   the   brakes   of   the  
d

riving   wheels   and   on   the   engine.
The electronic stability control acts on the
brake
  of   one   or   more   wheels   and   on   the   engine  
t

o   keep   the   vehicle   on   the   trajectory   required  
b

y   the   driver,   within   the   limits   of   the   laws   of  
p

hysics.
Activation
These systems are activated automatically each   time   the   vehicle   is   started.
They
  come   into   operation   in   the   event   of   a   grip

  is   indicated   by   flashing   of   this

  in   the   longitudinal   centreline
 o

f the vehicle on a horizontal plane and directed
from
  the   front   to   the   rear   of   the   vehicle.
The
  front   airbag   inflates   between   the   thorax   and
 h

If this warning lamp comes on in the instrument   panel,   contact   a   CITROËN d

ealer   or   a   qualified   workshop   to   have
