Peugeot Partner 1996-2008 Owner's Manual Driving safety

94 Driving safety HORN Press the centre of the steering wheel. HANDBRAKE Applying Pull the handbrake to immobilise your vehicle. Check that the handbrake is applied fi rmly before leaving the vehicle. Releasing Pull the handle and press the button to lower the handbrake. HAZARD WARNING LIGHTS Press this button, the direction indicators fl ash. They can operate with the ignition off. The hazard warning lights should only be used in dangerous situations, when stopping in an emergency or when driving in unusual conditions. When parking on a slope, direct your wheels towards the pavement and pull the handbrake. There is no advantage in engaging a gear after parking the vehicle, particularly if the vehicle is loaded. If the handbrake is still on or has not been released properly, this is indicated by this warning light which comes on on the instrument panel. Automatic lighting of hazard warning lights When braking in an emergency, depending on the force of deceleration, the hazard warning lights come on automatically. They switch off automatically the fi rst time you accelerate. It is also possible to switch them off by pressing the button on the fascia.
ABSABS 95 Driving safety SAFETY5 ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS - EBFD) The ABS and EBFD (electronic brake force distribution) systems improve the stability and manoeuvrability of your vehicle on braking, in particular on poor or slippery surfaces. The ABS prevents locking of the wheels, the EBFD provides control of the braking pressure wheel by wheel. If this warning light comes on, accompanied by an audible signal and a message on the display, it indicates a malfunction of the ABS which could result in a loss of control of the vehicle on braking. If this warning light comes on, together with the brake and STOP warning lights, accompanied by an audible signal and a message on the display, it indicates a malfunction of the electronic brake force distribution which could result in a loss of control of the vehicle on braking. EMERGENCY BRAKING ASSISTANCE SYSTEM (EBA) In an emergency, this system enables the optimum braking pressure to be reached more quickly, press the pedal fi rmly without releasing it. It is triggered by the speed at which the brake pedal is activated.This alters the resistance of the brake pedal under your foot. To prolong the operation of the emergency braking assistance system: keep your foot on the brake pedal. Good practice The anti-lock braking system comes into operation automatically when there is a risk of wheel lock. It does not reduce the braking distance. On very slippery surfaces (ice, oil, etc...) the ABS may increase the braking distance. When braking in an emergency, do not hesitate to press the brake pedal fi rmly, without releasing the pressure, even on a slippery surface, you will then be able to continue to manoeuvre the vehicle to avoid an obstacle. Normal operation of the ABS may be felt by slight vibration of the brake pedal. When changing wheels (tyres and rims), ensure that these are recommended by PEUGEOT . Stop immediately. In both cases, contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
96 Driving safety TRACTION CONTROL (ASR) AND DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESP) These systems are linked and complement the ABS. The ASR system is very useful for maintaining optimum drive and avoiding losses of control of the vehicle on acceleration. The system optimises drive to prevent the wheels skidding, by acting on the brakes of the drive wheels and on the engine. It also allows the directional stability of the vehicle to be improved on acceleration. Use the ESP to hold your course without attempting to countersteer. If there is a variation between the trajectory followed by the vehicle and that required by the driver, the ESP system automatically acts on the engine and the brake of one or more wheels, in order to put the vehicle back on course. Disarming the ASR/ESP systems In certain exceptional conditions (starting the vehicle when stuck in mud or snow, or on loose ground...), it could prove useful to disarm the ASR and ESP systems to make the wheels spin and regain grip. - Press the button, located on the centre console. - The indicator light comes on: the ASR and ESP systems no longer act. Operating check Good practice The ASR/ESP systems offer increased safety during normal driving, but should not incite the driver to take risks or to drive at high speed. The operation of these systems is ensured if the recommendations of the manufacturer regarding the wheels (tyres and rims), the braking components, the electronic components and the fi tting and repair procedures within the PEUGEOT network are observed. After an impact, have these systems checked by a PEUGEOT dealer. Operation of the ASR and ESP systems The luminous diode fl ashes when the ASR or ESP is triggered. They engage again: - automatically above 30 mph (50 km/h), - manually by pressing the button again. When a malfunction of the systems occurs, the indicator light comes on, accompanied by an audible signal and a message on the display. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have the system checked. The warning light may also come on if the tyres are under-infl ated. Check the pressure of each tyre.
