Geolocation
If you purchased your vehicle outside the
PEUGEOT dealer network, we invite you
to have a dealer check the configuration of
these ser vices and, if desired, modify it to
suit your wishes. In a multilingual country,
configuration is possible in the official
national language of your choice.
For technical reasons and, in particular,
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.
To reactivate geolocation, simultaneously press
the "Peugeot Connect SOS" and "Peugeot
Connect Assistance" buttons again, followed
by a press on "Peugeot Connect Assistance"
to confirm. If you benefit from the Peugeot Connect
Packs offer with the SOS and assistance
pack included, there are additional
ser vices available to you in your personal
space, via the website for your country.
You can deactivate geolocation by
simultaneously pressing the "Peugeot Connect
SOS" and "Peugeot Connect Assistance"
buttons, followed by pressing "Peugeot
Connect Assistance" to confirm.Horn
F Press the central part of the steering wheel.

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 sur faces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of
emergency braking.
The EBFD manages the braking pressure wheel by
wheel.
Emergency braking assistance
(EBA)
In an emergency, this system permits the
optimum braking pressure to be reached
more quickly, therefore reducing the stopping
distance.
It is triggered in relation to the speed at which
the brake pedal is pressed. The effect of this is
a reduction in the resistance of the pedal and
an increase in braking efficiency.
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.
Trailer stability assist (TSA)
Depending on the version, your vehicle has
a system allowing control of the vehicle to be
retained when towing a trailer, so as to avoid
the risk of snaking.
Intelligent traction control
system
Depending on version, your vehicle has a
system to help driving on snow: intelligent
traction control.
This system detects situations of poor sur face
grip that could make it difficult to move off
or make progress on deep fresh snow or
compacted snow.
In these situations, the intelligent traction
control limits the amount of wheel spin to
provide the best traction and trajectory control
for your vehicle. The use of snow tyres is strongly
recommended on sur faces offering low
levels of grip.
Anti-lock braking system
(ABS) and electronic brake
force distribution (EBD)
The fixed illumination of this warning
lamp indicates that there is 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) system.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In both cases, have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop as
soon as possible.

Safety

88
When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
ensure that these are approved for your
vehicle.
Normal operation of the ABS may make
itself felt by slight vibration of the brake
pedal.
If you need to brake in an emergency,
press the brake pedal ver y firmly and
keep the pressure applied.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Dynamic stability control (DSC)/
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
These systems are activated automatically
every time the vehicle is started.
As soon as they detect a problem of grip or
trajectory, these systems act on the operation
of the engine and brakes.This is indicated by this warning
lamp flashing in the instrument
panel.
Deactivation/reactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle
which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft
ground, etc.), it may be advisable to deactivate
these systems, so that the wheels can move
freely and regain grip.
With audio system and GT/GTi versions
F

P
ress this button to deactivate
the DSC and ASR.
With touch screen, except GT/GTi versions F

Sel
ect "Traction control" in the
Driving functions menu of the
touch screen to deactivate the
ASR.
Malfunction
Illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by the display of a
message and an audible signal,
indicates a fault with the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the systems checked.
Deactivation is confirmed by the illumination
of this warning lamp in the instrument panel,
the display of a message as well as the
illumination of the indicator lamp in the button.
Reactivate the system(s) when grip conditions
allow.
The system(s) reactivate(s) automatically each
time the ignition is switched back on or from
31
mph (50 km/h) (except GT and GTi versions).
Below 31
mph (50 km/h), you can reactivate it /
them manually.
With audio system and GT/GTi versions
F
P
ress this button again to
reactivate the DSC and ASR.
With touch screen, except GT/GTi versions F

Sel
ect "Traction control" again
in the Driving functions menu
of the touch screen to reactivate
the function.
