Intelligent traction control
system ("Snow motion")
When this warning lamp comes on, coupled with the STOP  and   ABS   warning  
l

amps,   accompanied   by   an   audible   signal  
a

nd   a   message,   it   indicates   that   there  
i

s   a   fault   with   the   electronic   brake   force  
di

stribution
 (
EBFD).
Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
The fixed illumination of this warning lamp indicates that there is a fault
with
  the   ABS. Depending
  on   version,   your   vehicle   has   a  s
ystem   to   help   driving   on   snow:   intelligent
traction control.
This system detects situations of difficult
sur face
  adhesion   that   could   make   it   difficult   to  
m

ove   off   or   make   progress   on   deep   fresh   snow  
o

r   compacted   snow.
In these situations, the intelligent traction
control limits the amount of wheel slip to
provide
  the   best   traction   and   trajectory   control  
f

or   your   vehicle.
The
  use   of   snow   tyres   is   strongly  
r

ecommended   on   sur faces   offering   low   levels  
o

f   adhesion.
When
  changing   wheels   (tyres   and  
r

ims), ensure that these are approved
for
  your   vehicle.
Normal
  operation   of   the   ABS   may   make  
i

tself   felt   by   slight   vibrations   of   the   brake  
ped

al.
In emergency braking, press ver y
firmly and maintain this pressure.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In
 
both
 
cases,   have   the   system   checked   by   a  
C

ITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified   workshop   as  
s

oon
 
as
 
possible.
The
 
vehicle   retains   conventional   braking.   Drive  
c

arefully
 
at   moderate   speed.
