Peugeot 2008 2019-2025 Owner's Manual Safety Electronic stability control (ESC)

72SafetyASSISTANCEIf the vehicle breaks down, press button 2for more than 2 seconds to request assistance (confirmed by a voice message*).Pressing again immediately cancels the request.Privacy mode allows you to manage the level of sharing (data and/or location) between your vehicle and PEUGEOT.It can be configured in the Settings touch screen menu or application, depending on the audio equipment.By default, depending on equipment, deactivate/reactivate geolocation by simultaneously pressing the 2 buttons, then press the "ASSISTANCE" button to confirm.If you purchased your vehicle outside the PEUGEOT dealer network, you are invited to have a dealer check the configuration of these services and, if desired, modify it as required. In a multilingual country, services can be configured to use the official national language of your choice.For technical reasons and in particular to improve the quality of telematics services *Depending on the geographic coverage of the "eCall (SOS)" and "ASSISTANCE" systems and the official national language chosen by the owner of the vehicle. The list of countries covered and the telematic services provided is available from dealers or on the website for your country.provided to customers, the Manufacturer reserves the right to carry out updates to the vehicle's on-board telematics system at any time.Vehicles equipped with PEUGEOT i-Connect AdvancedDuring an update to the vehicle's on-board telematics system, the ASSISTANCE system will be unavailable.If you benefit from the Peugeot Connect Packs offer with the SOS and Assistance Pack included, there are additional services available to you in your personal space, via the website for your country.For information about the SOS and Assistance Pack, please refer to the general conditions for these services.Electronic stability control (ESC)The electronic stability control programme includes the following systems:Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and Electronic brake force distribution (EBFD).Emergency braking assistance (EBA).Anti-slip regulation (ASR).Dynamic stability control (DSC).Trailer stability assist (TSA).Anti-lock braking system (ABS)/Electronic brake force distribution (EBFD)These systems enhance the vehicle’s stability and handling during braking, and enable greater control while cornering, particularly on poor or slippery road surfaces.ABS prevents wheel locking in the event of emergency braking.Electronic brake force distribution (EBFD) manages overall braking pressure on each individual wheel.When braking in an emergency, depress the pedal very firmly and maintain this pressure.Normal operation of the ABS may make itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake pedal.The fixed illumination of this warning lamp signals that there is a fault with the ABS.The vehicle retains conventional braking. Drive carefully at a moderate speed.
73Safety5Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.This warning lamp, when lit together with the STOP and ABS warning lamps, accompanied by a message and an audible signal, indicates an EBFD malfunction.You must stop the vehicle.Stop as soon as it is safe to do so and switch off the ignition.Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.When changing wheels (tyres and rims), ensure that these are approved for your vehicle.After an impactHave it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.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)/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/ReactivationIn exceptional conditions (e.g.moving a vehicle that is bogged down in mud, stuck in snow, on loose soil), it may prove useful to deactivate the ASR system, so that the wheels can move freely and regain grip.Reactivate the system as soon as the level of grip permits.With Touch screen 10" & Bluetooth Radio & TelephoneThe ASR system is deactivated/reactivated in the Driving touch screen menu.With PEUGEOT i-Connect Advanced- PEUGEOT i-ConnectThe ASR system is deactivated/reactivated in the ADAS touch screen application.Deactivation of the ASR system is indicated by this indicator lamp on the instrument panel coming on and the display of a message.The ASR system is automatically reactivated every time the ignition is switched off or at speeds over 31 mph (50 km/h)Reactivation is manual below 31 mph (50 km/h).MalfunctionIn 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 PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.ASR/DSCThese 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
74Safetythese 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 PEUGEOT 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.OperationThe system is activated automatically when the ignition is switched on.The electronic stability control system (ESC) must not have any faults.The vehicle speed must be between 37 and 99 mph (60 and 160km/h).If the system detects that the trailer is snaking, it applies the brakes to stabilise the trailer and reduces engine power, if necessary, to slow the vehicle (indicated by the flashing of this warning lamp on the instrument panel and the brake lamps coming on).For more information on weights and towed loads, refer to the Engine technical data and towed loads section or your vehicle’s registration certificate.To ensure safe driving with a Towing device, refer to the corresponding section.MalfunctionIf a fault occurs, this warning lamp lights up on the instrument panel, accompanied by a message and an audible signal.To continue towing a trailer, reduce speed and drive carefully!Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.The trailer stability control system provides an extra safety feature under normal driving conditions, when following the recommendations for use of trailers and current legislation in force in your country. It must not encourage the driver to take extra risks, such as using a trailer in unsuitable conditions of operation (e.g.excessive load, exceeded nose weight, worn or under-inflated tyres, faulty braking system) or driving at excessive speed.In certain cases, the system may not detect trailer snaking, particularly with a light trailer.When driving on slippery or poor surfaces, the system may not be able to prevent sudden trailer snaking.Advanced Grip ControlThis special patented traction control system improves grip on snow, mud and sand.For optimum grip on snow, it is recommended that you fit the vehicle with winter tyres.For optimum system performance, contact a PEUGEOT dealer to choose the most suitable tyres.RecommendationsThe vehicle is designed principally to drive on tarmac roads, but it may occassionally drive on other less passable terrain.However, it does not permit off-road driving:Driving on terrain that can damage the underbody or tear off elements (e.g.fuel pipe, fuel cooler) by obstacles or stones in particular.Driving on terrain with steep gradients and poor grip.Crossing a waterway.
