Braking assistance systems
Group of supplementary systems which help you   to   obtain   optimum   braking   in   complete  
s

afety   in   emergency   situations:
-
 
a
nti-lock   braking   system   (ABS),
-
 
e
lectronic   brake   force   distribution   (EBFD),
-
 
e
mergency   braking   assistance   (EBA).Anti-lock braking system
and electronic brake force
distribution
Linked systems which improve the stability and manoeuvrability   of   your   vehicle   when   braking,  
i

n   particular   on   poor   or   slippery   sur faces.
Activation
The anti-lock braking system comes into operation   automatically   when   there   is   a   risk   of  
w

heel   lock.
Normal
  operation   of   the   ABS   may   make   itself  
f

elt   by   slight   vibration   of   the   brake   pedal.
When
  braking   in   an   emergency,   press  
v

ery   firmly   without   releasing   the  
p

ressure.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on, together   with   the   STOP  and   ABS
warning
  lamps,   accompanied   by   an  
a

udible
 
signal   and   a   message   in   the   screen,   it  
i

ndicates
 
a   malfunction   of   the   electronic   brake  
f

orce
 
distribution   which   could   result   in   loss   of  
c

ontrol
 
of
  the   vehicle   when   braking.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
When
  replacing   wheels   (tyres   and  
r

ims),   ensure   that   they   conform   to   the  
ma

nufacturer's
 r
ecommendations.
If
  this   warning   lamp   comes   on,  
a

ccompanied   by   an   audible   signal  
a

nd   a   message   in   the   screen,   it  
i

ndicates
 
a   malfunction   of   the   anti-lock   braking  
s

ystem
 
which   could   result   in   loss   of   control   of  
t

he
 
vehicle   when   braking.
In
 
either
 
case,   contact   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a

Active City Brake
Active City Brakeis a driving assistance system that   aims   to   avoid   a   frontal   collision   or   reduce  
t

he   speed   of   an   impact   if   the   driver   does  
n

ot   take   sufficient   action   (inadequate   brake  
a

pplication).
This system is designed to improve driving safety.
I t   remains   the   driver's   responsibility   to c

ontinuously   monitor   the   state   of   the   traffic   and
 t

o   assess   the   distances   and   relative   speeds   of
 o

ther
 v
ehicle.
Active
  City   Brakecan   in   no   circumstances   replace
 t

he   need   for   vigilance   on   the   part   of   the   driver.
never   look   at   the   laser   sensor   through  an o
ptical in strument ( magnifying g lass, m

icroscope...)   at   a   distance   of   less   than  
1

0   centimetres:   risk   of   eye   injury.Automatic
  braking   occurs   later   than   if  
d

one   by   the   driver,   so   as   to   intervene  
o

nly   when   there   is   a   high   risk   of  
c

ollision.
Principle
Using a laser sensor located at the top of the windscreen,   this   system   detects   a   vehicle  
r

unning   in   the   same   direction   or   stationary  
a

head   of   your   vehicle.
When
  necessary,   the   vehicle's   braking   system  
i

s   operated   automatically   to   avoid   a   collision  
w

ith   the   vehicle   ahead.
Conditions for activation
Active City Brakeonly operates if the following conditions   are   met:
●
 
i
gnition   on,
●
 
t
he   vehicle   is   in   a   for ward   gear,
●
 
s
peed   is   between   about   3   and   18   mph  
(

5 and   30   km/h),
●
 
t
he   braking   assistance   systems   (ABS,  
E

BFD,   emergency   braking   assistance)   are  
n

ot faulty,
●
 
t
he   trajectory   control   systems   (ASR,   DSC)  
a

re   not   deactivated   or   faulty,
●
 
t
he   vehicle   is   not   in   a   tight   corner,
●
 
t
he   system   has   not   been   triggered   during  
t

he   previous   10   seconds.
