Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
and electronic stability
programme (ESP)
The anti-slip regulation (also known as Traction
Control) optimises traction to prevent skidding
of the wheels, by acting on the brakes of the
driving wheels and on the engine.
The electronic stability programme acts on the
brake of one or more wheels and on the engine to
keep the vehicle on the trajectory required by the
driver, within the limits of the laws of physics.This is indicated by flashing of this
warning lamp in the instrument panel. The ASR /ESP systems offer
exceptional safety in normal driving, but
this should not encourage the driver to
take extra risks or drive at high speed.
The correct functioning of these
systems depends on observation of
the manufacturer's recommendations
regarding the wheels (tyres and rims),
the braking components, the electronic
components and the assembly
and repair procedures used by the
PEUGEOT dealer network.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Operating fault
Illumination of the warning lamp,
accompanid by a message in the
screen indicates a malfunction of
these systems.
Reactivation
These systems are reactivated automatically
every time the ignition is switched of, or from
30 mph (50 km/h).

P
ress this button again to reactivate them
manually.
T

he lamp in the button goes off.
The symbol going off in the instrument panel
indicates the reactivation of the ASR and ESP
systems.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle
which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft
ground, ...), it may be advisable to deactivate
the ASR and ESP systems, so that the wheels
can move freely and regain grip.
Trajectory control systems
Activation
These systems are activated automatically
each time the vehicle is started.
They come into operation in the event of a grip
or trajectory problem. The display of this symbol indicates
that the ASR and ESP systems are
deactivated.
F

P
ress this button button, located on
the dashboard (driver's side), until the
corresponding symbol appears in the
instrument panel screen. T he lamp in the button comes on.Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the ASR /ESP systems
checked.
Coasting with the engine off results in a
loss of power assistance for the steering.
