Safety

Electronic stability control
(ESC)

A set of the following Electronic Stability
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).
- trailer 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 electronic brake force distribution system
manages the braking pressure wheel by wheel.

Emergency braking assistance

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.

The vehicle retains conventional braking. Drive
carefully at moderate speed.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible.

Illumination of this warning lamp,
linked 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).

You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Call on a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
