If you purchased your vehicle outside
the dealer network, we invite you to have
a
dealer check and, if desired, modify
the configuration of these ser vices to suit
your wishes. In a
multi-lingual country,
configuration is possible in the official
national language of your choice.
For technical reasons and in particular to
improve the quality of telematic ser vices to
customers, the manufacturer reserves the
right to carry out updates to the vehicle's
on-board telematic system.Electronic stability control

the following systems:

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.

Safety

97
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
f ollowed 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.
Anti-lock braking system
(ABS) and electronic brake
force distribution (EBD)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.
When lit up continuously, this
warning lamp indicates a
fault with
the ABS.
The vehicle retains conventional braking. Drive
carefully at moderate speed.
If these warning lamps come on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a
message, this indicates a fault
with the electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD).
When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
make sure that these are approved for
your vehicle.
Normal operation of the ABS system may
be indicated by slight vibration felt at the
brake pedal. In case of emergency braking, press
ver y hard without releasing the
pressure at all.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)/
Dynamic stability control
(DSC)
Activation
These systems are activated automatically
every time the vehicle is started.
They come into operation in the event of
a
problem with grip or trajectory.
This is indicated by flashing of this
warning lamp in the instrument
panel.
Deactivation
In extremely severe conditions (deep snow,
mud, etc.), if you are unable to move off, it
may be useful to temporarily deactivate these
systems so that the wheels can spin and allow
the vehicle to regain grip.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In both cases, have the system checked in the
dealer network or by a

qualified workshop as
soon as possible.
