Peugeot 3008 2008-2015 Safety Electronic stability programme (ESP)

121 ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAMME (ESP) Electronic stability programme (ESP) incorporating the following systems: - the anti-lock braking system (ABS) and the electronic brake force distri-bution system (EBFD), - the emergency braking assistance, - the traction control (ASR), - the dynamic stability control (DSC). Definitions Anti-skid regulation (ASR) The ASR system (also known as Trac-tion Control) 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 re-quired 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. Emergency braking assistance In an emergency, this system enables you to reach the optimum braking pres-sure 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 the effec-tiveness of the braking. Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and electronic brake force distribution system (EBFD) This system improves the stability and manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking and offers improved control, in particular on poor or slippery road sur-faces. The ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of emergency braking. The electronic brake force distribution system manages the braking pressure wheel by wheel. When this warning lamp comes on, accompanied by an audible signal and a message, it indi-cates that there is a fault with the ABS, which could cause loss of control of the vehicle when braking. When this warning lamp comes on, coupled with the STOPwarning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal and a mes-sage, it indicates that there is a fault with the electronic brake force distribution (EBFD), which could cause 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 PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop. When changing wheels (tyres and rims), make sure that these are approved for your vehicle. Normal operation of the ABS may make itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake pedal. In emergency braking, press very fi rmly without releas-ing the pressure. Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and electronic brake force distribution (EBFD)

122 Dynamic stability control (DSC) The DSC system offers excep-tional safety in normal driving, but this should not encourage the driver to take extra risks or drive at high speed. The correct functioning of the system depends on observation of the ma-nufacturer's recommendations re-garding the wheels (tyres and rims), the braking components, the electron-ic components and the assembly and repair procedures used by PEUGEOT dealers. After an impact, have the system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer. Deactivation In exceptional conditions (starting a ve-hicle which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft ground...), it may be ad-visable to deactivate the DSC system, so that the wheels can move freely and regain grip. Press the "ESP OFF"button or, according to version, turn the dial to this position. This warning lamp and the in-dicator lamp on the button or on the dial come on: the DSC system no longer acts on the operation of the engine. Reactivation The system is reactivated automatically each time the ignition is switched back on or from 30 mph (50 km/h). Operating fault If this warning lamp comes on, accompanied by an audible sig-nal and a message on the mul-tifunction screen, this indicates a malfunction of the system. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have the system checked. This is indicated by fl ashing of this warning lamp in the instru-ment panel. Activation This system is activated automatically each time the vehicle is started. It comes into operation in the event of a grip or trajectory problem. Press the "ESP OFF" but-ton again or, according to version, turn the dial to this position, to reactivate it manually.
