The new pressure settings registered
are considered to be reference values
by the system.
The
under-inflation alert can only
be relied on if the system has
been reinitialised with all four tyres
inflated
to the correct pressures.
Before doing anything to the
system, the pressures of the four
tyres must be checked and the
system
reinitialised.
Snow chains
The system does not have to be
reinitialised after fitting or removing
snow
chains.
Dashboard button

Make
a long press on this button.
A
high tone audible signal confirms the
reinitialisation.
A
low tone audible signal indicates that
the reinitialisation was not completed.
Operating fault
The flashing and then fixed illumination of
the under-inflation warning lamp
accompanied by illu
mination of the
Service warning lamp indicates a fault
with
the system.
In
this case, under-inflation monitoring
of
the tyres is no longer assured.
Have
the system checked by a

ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
(ABS / EBFD)
The ABS and EBFD (electronic brake force distribution) systems improve the
stability and manoeuvrability of your
vehicle
on braking, in particular on
poor
or slippery surfaces.
The
ABS
prevents locking of the
wheels, the EBFD provides control of
the
braking pressure wheel by wheel.If this warning lamp comes
on, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message
in the screen, it indicates a
malfunction of the ABS which
could result in a loss of control of the
vehicle
on braking.
If this warning lamp comes
on,
together with the brake
and ST
OP warning lamps,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the
screen, it indicates a malfunction of
the
electronic brake force distribution
which could result in a loss of control of
the
vehicle on braking.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSIST
ANCE (EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables
the optimum braking pressure to be
reached
more quickly, press the pedal
firmly
without releasing it.
It is triggered by the speed at which the
brake
pedal is pressed down.
This
alters the resistance of the brake
pedal
under your foot.
To maintain operation of the
emergency
braking assistance system:
keep
your foot on the brake pedal.
Good practice
The anti-lock braking system comes into operation automatically when
there is a risk of wheel lock. It does not
reduce
the braking distance.
On very slippery surfaces (ice,
oil, etc...)
the
ABS
may increase the
braking
distance. When braking in
an emergency
, do not hesitate to
press
the brake pedal firmly, without
releasing the pressure, even on a
slippery surface, you will then be able
to continue to manoeuvre the vehicle
to
avoid an obstacle.
Normal operation of the ABS may be
felt
by slight vibration of the brake
pedal.
When changing wheels (tyres and
rims), ensure that these are listed by
CITROËN
for the vehicle. Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In both cases, contact a CITROËN
dealer
or a qualified workshop.

Driving safely
ANTI-SLIP REGULATION (ASR)
AND
DYNAMIC STABILITY
CONTROL (DSC)
These systems are linked and complement the ABS.
The
ASR system is very useful for
maintaining optimum drive and
avoiding losses of control of the vehicle
on
acceleration.
The system optimises drive to prevent
the
wheels skidding, by acting on the
brakes
of the drive wheels and on the
engine.
It also allows the directional
stability of the vehicle to be improved
on
acceleration.
Use the DSC to hold your course
without
attempting to countersteer.
If there is a variation between the
trajectory
followed by the vehicle and
that required by the driver
, the DSC
system automatically acts on the
engine
and the brake of one or more
wheels,
in order to put the vehicle back
on
course.
Deactivation
In certain exceptional conditions
(starting the vehicle when stuck in mud
or
snow, or on loose ground...), it could
prove useful to deactivate the
ASR and
DSC
systems to make the wheels spin
and
regain grip.
Operating fault
Good practice
The ASR/DSC systems offer increased safety during normal driving, but
should
not incite the driver to take risks
or
to drive at high speed.
The operation of these systems is
ensured if the recommendations
of the manufacturer regarding
the wheels (tyres and rims), the
braking
components, the electronic
components
and the fitting and repair
procedures
are observed.
After an impact, have these systems
checked
by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified
workshop.
Operation
The warning lamp flashes when operation of the ASR or
DSC
is triggered.
They engage again:
-
automatically above 30 mph
(50
km/h), When a malfunction of the
systems occurs, the warning
lamp and the LED come on,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the
screen.
-
Press the button or turn
the dial to the DSC OFF
position (depending on
model).
-
The
LED comes on: the
ASR
and
DSC systems no longer come into
play
. -
manually by pressing the
button again or by turning
the dial to this position
(depending
on model).Contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified
workshop to have the system
checked.
The warning lamp may also come on if
the
tyres are under-inflated. Check the
pressure
of each tyre.

Good Practice
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load up a
steep slope in high temperatures), the
engine automatically limits its power.
In this case, the air conditioning is
automatically cut of
f to save engine
power.
Tyres
Check
the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer
, observing the
recommended
pressures.
Chapter
7, "Levels" section.
If the coolant temperature
