220 V/50 Hz socket
A 220 V/50 Hz socket (max. power: 120 W)

compartment.
This socket works with the engine running, as
well as in STOP mode with Stop & Start. When the USB socket is used, the

A message is displayed if the power drawn
by the portable device exceeds the current
supplied by the vehicle.
For more information on how to use this
equipment, refer to the Audio equipment

Electronic stability control
(ESC)
Electronic stability control programme
incorporating the following systems:
-
A
nti-lock braking system (ABS) and
Electronic brake force distribution (EBFD).
-
E
mergency braking assistance (EBA).
-
A
nti-slip regulation (ASR).
-
D
ynamic stability control (DSC).
-
A
utomatic post-collision braking (APCB).
-
T
railer stability assist (TSA).
Definitions
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
These systems improve the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking
and contribute towards improved control in
corners, in particular on poor or slippery road
surfaces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of
emergency braking.
The EBFD 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.
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 braking efficiency.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
This system optimises traction in order to
avoid 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, this system 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)
This system allows control of the vehicle to be
retained when towing a trailer, so as to avoid
the risk of snaking.
Anti-lock braking system
(ABS) and electronic brake
force distribution (EBFD)
The fixed illumination of this warning
lamp signals that there is a fault with
the ABS.
Illumination of this warning lamp,
coupled with the STOP and ABS
warning lamps, accompanied by
the display of a message and an
audible signal, signals that there is a
fault with the electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD).
The vehicle retains conventional braking. Drive
carefully at moderate speed.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Call a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Safety
95
Normal operation of the ABS may make
itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake
pedal.
When braking in an emergency, press
very 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 CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Dynamic stability control
(DSC) and anti-slip
regulation (ASR)
Activation
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 (moving a vehicle that
is bogged down in mud, stuck in snow, on loose
soil, etc.), it may prove useful to deactivate the
DSC/ASR systems, so that the wheels can
move freely and regain grip.
It is however recommended that the systems
be reactivated as soon as possible.
These systems are reactivated automatically
every time the ignition is switched off, or from
31
mph (50 km/h).
However, below 31
mph (50 km/h) you can
reactivate them manually.
To deactivate the systems, press
this button or turn the dial to this
position.
The indicator lamp in the button or dial comes
on: the DSC/ASR systems no longer act on the
operation of the engine. To reactivate the system:
Press this button.
Or Turn the dial to this position.
The indicator lamp in the button or the dial goes off.
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 CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the systems checked.
