Peugeot Partner 1996-2008 Owner's Manual Driving safety Traction control (ASR) / ESP

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.
