Safety
Dynamic stability control
(DSC)
Switching on
The DSC system is activated automatically every
time the vehicle is started.
It comes into operation in the event of a grip or
trajectory problem.
This is indicated by the flashing of this warning lamp on the instrument panel.
Deactivation
This system cannot be deactivated by the driver.
Malfunction
The lighting of this warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal and
confirmed by a message on the instrument panel
display, indicates a malfunction of the DSC
system.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
Deactivation / Reactivation
The ASR system is activated automatically every
time the vehicle is started.
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle
which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft
ground, etc.), it may be advisable to deactivate
Electronic stability control
(ESC)
Electronic stability control (ESC: Electronic
Stability Control) integrating the following
systems:
– anti-lock braking system (ABS) and electronic
brake force distribution (EBFD),
– emergency braking assistance (EBA),
– wheel anti-slip regulation (ASR) or traction
control,
– dynamic stability control (DSC).
Definitions
Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and
Electronic brake force distribution
(EBFD)
This system improves the stability and handling
of your vehicle when braking and contributes
towards improved control on bends, in particular
on poor or slippery road surfaces.
ABS prevents wheel locking in the event of
emergency braking.
EBFD 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 depressed. 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.
Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and electronic brake
force distribution (EBD)
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal and a
message in an instrument panel screen, it
indicates a fault 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 CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
For maximum braking efficiency, a
bedding-in period of around 300 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
surfaces (ice, oil, etc.) the ABS may extend
braking distances.
When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
ensure that these are approved for your
vehicle.
For emergency braking, press the
brake pedal very hard and do not
release it, even on a slipper surface; you
will then be able to continue steering the
vehicle to avoid an obstacle.
After an impact, have these systems checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.

Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
Deactivation / Reactivation
The ASR system is activated automatically every
time the vehicle is started.
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 system, so that the wheels can turn
freely and regain grip.
Reactivate the system as soon as the level of
grip permits.



ASR

► Press this button to deactivate / reactivate the
function.
The illumination of the button indicator lamp,
accompanied by a message on the instrument
panel display screen, indicates that the ASR
system is deactivated.
The ASR system is automatically reactivated
every time the ignition is switched off
Malfunction
The lighting of this warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal and
confirmed by a message on the instrument panel
display, indicates a malfunction of the ASR
system.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
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 observation 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 CITROËN dealers.
To benefit in full from the effectiveness
of these systems in wintry conditions,
the vehicle must be fitted with four snow
tyres, allowing the vehicle to retain neutral
behaviour on the road.
Intelligent Traction Control
Traction assistance system on roads with low
grip (snow, ice, mud, etc.).
This system makes it possible to detect the
situations of precarious grip which can make the
starting and the progress of the vehicle difficult.
In these situations, the Intelligent Traction
Control system overrides the ASR system by
transferring the driving force to the wheel with
the greatest contact with the ground to optimise
traction and trajectory tracking.
