Normal operation of the ABS may make
itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake
pedal.
In emergency braking, press ver y
firmly and maintain this pressure.
When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
ensure that these are approved for your
vehicle.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or
a
qualified workshop.
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 adhesion.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)/
Dynamic stability control
(DSC)
Operation
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.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle
w hich is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft
ground, etc.), it may be advisable to deactivate
the ASR system, so that the wheels can turn
freely and regain grip.
Reactivate the system when grip conditions
allow. Deactivation of the function is done
in the Vehicle/Driving
menu of the
touch screen.
The ASR system no longer acts on the
operation of the engine.
Reactivation
The ASR system is reactivated automatically
every time the ignition is switched back on or
from 31 mph (50 km/h).
Below 31
mph (50 km/h), you can reactivate it
manually:
Reactivation of the function is done
from the Vehicle/Driving menu of
the touch screen.
It is confirmed by the display of a
message.
Operating fault
This is indicated by flashing of this
warning lamp in the instrument
panel. It is confirmed by the display of a
message.
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.
Safety

127
ASR/DSC
These systems offer increased safety
in normal driving, but they should not
encourage the driver to take extra risks or
drive at high speed.
It is in conditions of reduced grip (rain,
snow, ice) that the risk of loss of grip
increases. It is therefore important for your
safety to keep these systems activated in
all conditions, and particularly in difficult
conditions.
The correct operation of these
systems depends on obser vation of
the manufacturer's recommendations
regarding as much the wheels (tyres and
rims), braking and electronic components
as the assembly and repair procedures
used by PEUGEOT dealers.
The use of snow tyres is recommended,
in order to be able to benefit from the
efficiency of these systems in winter
conditions.
In this case, it is essential to equip the
four wheels with tyres approved for your
vehicle.Trailer stability assist
When towing, this system reduces the risk of
the vehicle or trailer swaying.
Operation
The system is activated automatically when the
ignition is switched on.
The electronic stability control (ESC) must not
have any faults.
Between 37 and 99 mph (60 and 160 km/h), if
the system detects oscillations (snaking) in the
movement of the trailer, it acts on the brakes to
stabilise the trailer and, if necessary, reduces
engine power to slow down the vehicle.
The correction is signalled by the
flashing of this indicator lamp in the
instrument panel and illumination of
the brake lamps.
For information on the weights and towed
loads, refer to the "Technical data" section or
the registration certificate for your vehicle.
For advice on driving safely when To w i n g
a
trailer , refer to the corresponding section.
Malfunction
Should a fault occur with the system,
t his warning lamp comes on in the
instrument panel, accompanied by
the display of a
message and an
audible signal.
The trailer stability assist system offers
increased safety in normal driving,
provided that the recommendations on
towing a
trailer are obser ved. It should not
encourage the driver to take risks, such
as towing a
trailer in adverse operating
conditions (overloading, failure to obser ve
the trailer nose weight, worn or under-
inflated tyres, faulty braking system, etc.)
or drive at too high a
speed.
In certain cases, oscillation of the trailer
may not be detected by the ESC system,
particularly with a
light trailer.
When driving on slippery or poor sur faces,
the system may not be able to prevent
sudden snaking of the trailer.
If you continue to tow a
trailer, reduce your
speed and drive carefully!
Contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.

Side wind
F Take into account the increased sensitivity to wind.
Cooling

t emperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling
capacity is not dependent on the engine speed.
F
T

depends on the gradient and the exterior
temperature.
In all cases, keep a

f this warning lamp and the
STOP warning lamp come on,
stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.
New vehicle
Do not pull a trailer before having driven at least
approximately 620
miles (1,000
kilometres).
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
T o avoid overheating of the brakes, the use of
engine braking is recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam height
of your vehicle.
For more information on Headlamp
adjustment , refer to the corresponding
section.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically to avoid the
audible signal if a
genuine PEUGEOT
towbar is used.
Anti-theft protection
Electronic immobiliser
The keys contain an electronic chip which has
a secret code. When the ignition is switched
on, this code must be recognised in order for
starting to be possible.
A few seconds after switching off the ignition,
this system locks the engine control system,
therefore preventing the engine from being
started in the event of a
break-in.

control lever:
Indicator lamp
This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel and in the control
lever to confirm the application of
the parking brake.
It goes off to confirm the release of the parking
brake.
This indicator lamp flashes on the control lever
when manual parking brake application or
release is performed.
In the event of a
battery failure, the
electric parking brake no longer works.
As a
safety measure with a manual
gearbox, if the parking brake is not
applied, immobilise the vehicle by
engaging a
gear.
As a
safety measure with an automatic
gearbox, if the parking brake is not
applied, immobilise the vehicle by placing
one of the chocks supplied against one of
the wheels.
Call on a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Label on door panel
Before leaving the vehicle, check that the
parking brake is applied: the indicator
lamps in the instrument panel and
the control lever must be on fixed, not
flashing.
If the parking brake is not applied, there
is an audible signal and a
message is
displayed on opening the driver's door.
Never leave a
child alone inside the
vehicle with the ignition on, as they could
release the parking brake.
