electronic brake force distribution (EBFD),

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
(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.
Safety
69
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 (EBFD)
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal and
a
message in the instrument panel screen,
it indicates a
f
ault with the anti-lock braking
system (ABS) which could result in loss of
control of the vehicle when braking.
If these warning lamps come on,
accompanied by a message in the
instrument panel screen, it indicates
a
fault with the electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD) system which
could result in loss of control of the
vehicle when braking.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In both cases, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or
a
qualified workshop. For maximum braking efficiency, a
bedding-in period of around 310
miles
(500 kilometres) is needed. During this
period, it is advisable to avoid any sudden,
repeated and prolonged braking.
The ABS does not provide shorter braking
distances. On very slippery sur faces (ice,
oil, etc.) the ABS may extend braking
distances.
When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
make sure that these are approved for
your vehicle.
For emergency braking, press the
brake pedal ver y hard and do not
release it, even on a slipper y sur face;
you will then be able to continue
steering the vehicle to avoid an
obstacle.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or
a
qualified workshop.
Dynamic stability control
(DSC)
Switching on
The DSC system is activated automatically
each time the vehicle is started.
It comes into operation in the event of a grip or
trajectory problem.
This is indicated by this warning
lamp flashing in the instrument
panel.
Deactivation
This system cannot be deactivated by the
driver.
Malfunction
Illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible signal
and confirmed by a message in the
instrument panel screen, indicates
a
fault with the DSC system.
Have it checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or by
a
qualified workshop.

The driver's seat is fitted with a pyrotechnic
p retensioner and a force limiter.
On models with a
passenger's front airbag,
the passenger's seat is also fitted with
a
pyrotechnic pretensioner and a force limiter.
The front bench seat is fitted with two seat
belts.

t a speed below 19 mph (30 km/h) press this
button to activate the system; the indicator
lamp in the button comes on.
Once the vehicle starts its descent, you can
release the accelerator and brake pedals; the
indicator lamp in the button flashes.
The brake lamps come on automatically when the
system is brought into operation.
If the speed of the vehicle exceeds 19
mph
(30
km/h), the system is automatically deactivated,
but the indicator lamp in the button stays on.
The system reactivates automatically as soon
as the speed of the vehicle drops below 19
mph
(30
km/h).You can depress the accelerator or brake
pedal again at any time. For the system to activate, the slope must
be greater than 8%.
Do not use the system with the gearbox
in neutral.
Engage an appropriate gear for the speed
of the vehicle, to avoid the engine stalling.
Deactivation
F Press this button to switch off the system;
the indicator lamp in the button goes out.
Above 30
mph (50 km/h), the function is
completely deactivated; the indicator lamp in
the button goes off.
The system may not be available if the
brakes overheat. Wait a
few minutes for
them to cool down before trying again.
Malfunction
If a fault occurs with the hill descent
c ontrol system, this warning lamp
comes on.
Have it checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or by
a
qualified workshop.
If you install a
front bench seat as an
accessory, it must be fitted with approved
seat belts.
Safety

If the windscreen is damaged, it is strongly
recommended that you go to a PEUGEOT
dealer or a
qualified workshop for any
replacement and calibration of the camera.
Operation
The system starts automatically when moving
of f.
A check of the operating conditions
takes place: these two warning
lamps come on in the instrument
panel.
When these conditions are met, these two
indicator lamps go off. The system is activated.
If the operating conditions are not met, the
system is activated but is no longer effective.
This is signalled by the fixed illumination of
these two warning lamps in the instrument
panel.
Operating conditions
Once running, the system is only active when
the operating conditions are met:
-
T
he vehicle is moving for wards.
-
N
o malfunction is detected in the vehicle.
Deactivation
F Press this button to switch off the system, the indicator lamp in the button comes on.
The system state remains in memory when the
ignition is switched off.
Reactivation
F Press this button to switch the system on, the indicator lamp in the button goes off.
The two warning lamps in the instrument panel
remain on up to 37
mph (60 km/h).
Detection
