2018 Peugeot iOn rims

49
The warning lamp comes on for a few
seconds when switching on (ON position).
If it does not go out or come on, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Moving vehicle If this warning lamp remains on
constantly, it indicates an anti-lock
braking system malfunction that
could cause control of the vehicle to
be lost during braking.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
If both these warning lamps come
on, they indicate a malfunction in the
electronic brake force distribution
that could cause control of the
vehicle to be lost during braking.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
When replacing wheels (tyres and rims),
ensure that they comply with manufacturer
recommendations.Emergency braking assistance
System which, in an emergency, enables you
to obtain the optimum braking pressure more
quickly, thus reducing the stopping distance.
Activation
It is triggered by 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. In emergency braking, press very firmly
and maintain this pressure.
Trajectory control systems
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
and dynamic stability
control (DSC)
The anti-slip regulation (also known as traction
control) optimises traction to prevent skidding of
the wheels, by acting on the brakes of the driving
wheels and on the engine.
The stability control acts on the brake of one
or more wheels and on the engine to keep the
vehicle on the trajectory required by the driver,
within the limits of the laws of physics.
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 exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle
which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft
ground, etc.), it may be advisable to deactivate
the ASR and DSC systems, so that the wheels
can regain grip.
F

P
ress this button until the corresponding
symbol appears in the instrument panel.
The display of this symbol indicates
that the ASR and DSC systems are
deactivated.

Safety

50
Excessive wheel slippage may damage
the differential of your vehicle.
Reactivation
These systems are not reactivated
automatically.
F
P
ress the button again to reactivate them
manually.
The symbol going off in the instrument panel
indicates reactivation of the ASR and DSC
systems.
Operating fault
Illumination of these warning lamps
in the instrument panel indicates
malfunction of these systems.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the ASR /DSC systems
checked. Although the ASR /DSC systems help
improve safety in normal driving, they
should not encourage the driver to take
extra risks or drive at high speed.
The risk of loss of traction increases in
conditions of reduced grip (rain, snow,
ice). For your safety, you should therefore
keep these systems activated at all times,
particularly in poor conditions.
The correct operation of these systems
depends on observing the manufacturer's
recommendations regarding wheels (tyres
and rims), braking system components
and electronic components, as well as
assembly and repair procedures used by
the PEUGEOT dealer network.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Engine brake reduction
indicator lamp
Your vehicle is equipped with a system for the
recovery of energy during deceleration which
uses the engine brake.
It recovers into the traction battery some of the
energy generated when the vehicle slows down
(e.g. on a long descent) to improve the range
of the battery and so the distance that can be
travelled between charges.
When the traction battery has been charged
fully and for the first few miles (or kilometres) of
use of the vehicle, the engine brake is reduced
temporarily.
This indicator lamp flashes on the
instrument panel, inviting you to
adapt your driving accordingly.
We therefore recommend that you anticipate
your braking as much as possible: use the
brake pedal to slow down or stop the vehicle.

Reinitialisation of the system is done via the
display screen of the instrument panel, with the
ignition on and the vehicle stationary.
F
P
ress button A to select the system.
F

T
o reinitialise the under-inflation detection
system press button A and hold it down for
at least 3
seconds.
The flashing of the warning lamp in the
instrument panel confirms that the system has
been reinitialised.
The warning lamp will then go off after driving
for about a hundred metres.
The under-inflation alert can only be relied
on if the reinitialisation of the system has
been done with the pressures in the four
tyres correctly adjusted.
Malfunction
The flashing and then fixed
illumination of the under-inflation
warning lamp indicates a fault with
the system.
In this case, the pressure in the tyres is no
longer monitored.
This alert is also displayed if:
-

o

ne or more wheels is not fitted with a
sensor,
-

t

here is a wireless device using the same
frequency near the vehicle,
-

t

here is snow or ice build-up in the wings or
in the rims,
-

t

he tyre pressure monitoring system battery
charge level is insufficient,
-

t

he wheel sensor identifiers have not been
logged by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop
to have the system checked or,
following a puncture, to have the original
wheel, equipped with a sensor, refitted
with a tyre. Any tyre repair or replacement on a wheel
fitted with this system must be carried
out by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
If you fit the second set of tyres stored
in the system, the malfunction alert will
appear until this second set is selected in
the configuration menu.
Managing sets of tyres
If you have registered a second set of tyres with
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop,
every time the set of tyres is changed (e.g.
"winter" tyre), select the set you have just
installed in the configuration menu.
Once the new set has been fitted, check
and adjust the pressure to the value stated
on the tyre pressure label.
For more information on the
Identification markings , refer to the
corresponding section.
The other set of tyres is selected via the
instrument panel display screen, with the
ignition on and the vehicle stationary.
