Safety
Anti-slip regulation (ASR) / Dynamic stability control
(DSC)
Anti-slip regulation (or traction control) optimises
traction by using engine braking and by applying
the brakes on the driving wheels to avoid one
or more wheels spinning. It also enhances the
vehicle's directional stability.
If there is a difference between the vehicle’s
trajectory and the path desired by the driver, the
dynamic stability control system automatically
uses engine braking and the brakes on one or
more wheels to return the vehicle to the desired
path, within the limits of the laws of physics.
These systems are activated automatically every
time the vehicle is started.
These systems are activated in the event of a problem with grip or trajectory
(confirmed by this warning lamp flashing on 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.
However, it is recommended that the system 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).
At speeds below 31 mph (50 km/h), the systems
can be reactivated manually.
Press this button or turn the thumbwheel
to this position.
The indicator lamp in the button or thumbwheel
comes on: the DSC/ASR systems no longer
have an effect on engine operation.
To reactivate the system:
Press this button.
Or
Turn the thumbwheel to this position.
The indicator lamp in the button or thumbwheel
goes off.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, this warning
lamp lights up on the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a message and
an audible signal.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
ASR/DSC
These systems enhance safety during
normal driving, but 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.
Correct operation of these systems depends
on compliance with the manufacturer's
recommendations relating to the wheels
(tyres and rims), braking and electronic
components, as well as the assembly and
repair procedures provided by CITROËN
dealers.
In order to ensure that these systems remain
effective in wintry conditions, the use of snow
or all-season tyres is recommended. All four
wheels must be fitted with tyres approved for
your vehicle.
All tyre specifications are listed on the
tyre/paint label. For more information
on Identification markings , refer to the
corresponding section.
Trailer stability assist (TSA)
When towing, this system reduces the risk of the
vehicle or trailer snaking.
