2018 CITROEN DS3 CABRIO DAG ABS

141
Operation
- the braking assistance systems (ABS, EBFD, EBA) are not faulty.
-

t
he trajectory control systems (ASR, DSC)
are not deactivated or faulty,
-

t
he vehicle is not making a sharp turn,
-

t
he system has not triggered in the last ten
seconds.
When your vehicle is too close to or
approaches the vehicle ahead too quickly, the
system automatically applies the brakes to
avoid a


collision.
You are then warned by the display of
a


message.
The brake lamps of your vehicle are lit to warn
other users.
The collision can be avoided if the speed
difference between your vehicle and the one
ahead is not more than 9
mph (15 km/h).
Above this threshold, the system will do
what is possible to avoid or reduce the
accident by lowering the speed of impact.
The automatic braking can lead to the complete
stop of the vehicle if the situation requires it. In this case, the vehicle is held stationary
temporarily (for about 1.5
seconds) to allow
the driver to take back control by pressing the
brake pedal.
Unless the driver depresses the clutch
pedal quickly enough during automatic
braking, triggering of the system may
cause the engine to stall.
During automatic braking, the driver can
always obtain a
higher rate of deceleration
than that controlled by the system, by
pressing firmly on the brake pedal.
After an impact, the system is
automatically put out of ser vice: it no
longer operates.
You must go to a
member of the dealer
network or a
qualified workshop to have
the system made operational again.Deactivation
The system is deactivated in the vehicle
configuration menu, accessible with the ignition on.
Its state is memorised when the ignition is switched
of f.
When the system is deactivated, a
message is displayed every time the
ignition is switched on, to warn you.

vehicle, making sure that the vehicle's
contact sur face is centred on the head of
the jack. Otherwise, the vehicle could be
damaged and/or the jack could collapse –
Risk of injury!

position R for the electronic gearbox, P for
the automatic gearbox Parking the vehicle
Park the vehicle where it does not block
traffic: the ground must be level, stable
and non-slippery.
Apply the parking brake, switch off the
ignition and engage first gear* so as to
block the wheels.
If necessary, place a
chock under the
wheel diagonally opposite the wheel to be
changed.
Make absolutely certain that all the
occupants have left the vehicle and are
waiting in a safe area.
Never go underneath a vehicle raised
using a jack; use an axle stand.
Wheel with wheel trim
When removing the wheel , first remove
the wheel trim using wheelbrace 1
by
pulling at the valve aperture.
When refitting the wheel , after tightening
the wheel bolts, refit the wheel trim,
starting by placing its aperture in line with
