2017 Peugeot 208 traction control

Warning / indicator lampStateCause Action / Observations
Under-inflation Fixed, accompanied
by an audible signal
and a message. One or more wheels has
insufficient pressure.
Check the pressure of the tyres as soon as possible.
This check should preferably be carried out when the
tyres are cold.
You must reinitialise the system after adjusting one or
more tyre pressures and after changing one or more
wheels.
For more information on Tyre under-inflation
detection
, refer to the corresponding section.
+ Flashing then fixed,
accompanied by the
Service warning lamp.
The system is faulty: tyre
pressures are no longer
monitored. Check the tyre pressures as soon as possible.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Dynamic stability
control
(DSC/ASR) Flashing.
The DSC/ASR regulation is
operating. The system optimises traction and improves the
directional stability of the vehicle in the event of loss of
grip or trajectory.
Fixed. The DSC/ASR system has a fault. Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Airbags Temporarily on. This warning lamp comes on for
a few seconds when you turn on
the ignition, then goes off.
This warning lamp should go off when the engine is started.
If it does not go off, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Fixed.One of the airbag or seat belt
pyrotechnic pretensioner systems
has a fault. Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

If you purchased your vehicle outside the
Brand network, we invite you to have the
configuration of these ser vices checked
and, if desired, have a dealer change it to
suit your wishes. In a multilingual country,
configuration is possible in the official
national language of your choice.
For technical reasons, particularly
to improve the quality of PEUGEOT
CONNECT ser vices to customers, the
manufacturer reser ves the right to carry
out updates to the vehicle's on-board
telematic system.Electronic stability control
(ESC)
Electronic stability control (ESC) comprising
the following systems:
-
a
nti-lock braking system (ABS) and
electronic brake force distribution (EBFD),
-
em

ergency braking assistance (EBA),
-

w
heel anti-slip regulation (ASR) or traction
control,
-
d

ynamic stability control (DSC). It is triggered in relation to the speed at which
the brake pedal is pressed. This is felt by a
reduction in the resistance of the pedal and an
increase in the effectiveness of the braking.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
The ASR system (also known as Traction
Control) optimises traction in order to limit
wheel slip by acting on the brakes of the driving
wheels and on the engine. It also improves
the directional stability of the vehicle on
acceleration.
Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If there is a difference between the path
followed by the vehicle and that required by
the driver, the DSC monitors each wheel and
automatically acts on the brake of one or more
wheels and on the engine to return the vehicle
to the required path, within the limits of the laws
of physics.
Definitions
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
This system improves the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking
and contributes towards improved control on
corners, in particular on poor or slippery road
surfaces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of
emergency braking.
The electronic brake force distribution system
manages the braking pressure wheel by wheel.
Emergency braking assistance
(EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables you to
reach the optimum braking pressure more
quickly and therefore reduce the stopping
distance.
