Peugeot Rifter 2018-2019 Owner's Manual Safety Advanced Grip Control

75Safety5MalfunctionIf a fault occurs, this warning lamp comes on in the instrument panel, accompanied by a message and an audible signal.If you wish to continue towing a trailer, reduce your speed and drive carefully!Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop to have the system checked.The trailer stability assist system offers enhanced safety in normal driving, provided that the recommendations on towing a trailer are observed. It should not encourage the driver to take risks, such as towing a trailer in adverse operating conditions (overloading, failure to observe the trailer nose weight, worn or under-inflated tyres, faulty braking system, etc.), or to drive at excessive speeds.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 ControlA special, patented traction control system which improves driveability on snow, mud and sand.This system, optimised for operation in a range of conditions, enables you to manoeuvre in most slippery conditions (encountered during normal passenger car use).When combined with suitable tyres, this system offers a compromise between safety, grip and driveability.The accelerator pedal should be pressed sufficiently to allow the system to harness the power of the engine. Operation at high engine speeds is completely normal.A five-position selector knob allows you to choose the setting best suited to the driving conditions encountered.An indicator lamp associated with each mode comes on, accompanied by the display of a message to confirm your choice.Operating modesStandard (ESC)This mode is calibrated for a low level of wheel spin, based on the different levels of grip normally encountered on the road.Every time the ignition is switched off, the system automatically resets to this mode.SnowThis mode adapts its strategy to the conditions of grip encountered for each of the two front wheels on moving off.(mode active up to 50 mph (80 km/h))All terrain (mud, damp grass, etc.)This mode, when moving off, allows considerable spin on the wheel with the least grip to optimise clearing of the mud and to regain grip. At the same time, the wheel with the most grip is controlled in such a way as to transmit as much torque as possible.When moving, the system optimises wheel spin to respond to the driver's requirements as fully as possible.(mode active up to 31 mph (50 km/h))SandThis mode allows little spin on the two driving wheels at the same time to allow the vehicle to move forward and limit the risks of getting stuck in the sand.(mode active up to 75 mph (120km/h))Do not use the other modes on sand as the vehicle may become stuck.
76SafetyOn a descent, with the vehicle stationary, if you release the accelerator and brake pedals, the system will release the brakes to set the vehicle gradually in motion.The brake lamps light up automatically when the system is regulating.If the speed exceeds 19 mph (30km/h), regulation is paused automatically, the indicatorlamp goes back to grey in the instrument panel, but the green indicator lamp in the button remains on.Regulation resumes automatically when the speed falls below 19 mph (30km/h) again, if the slope and pedal release conditions are met.You can depress the accelerator or brake pedal again at any time.Off►Press the button until its indicator lamp goes off; the indicator lamp on the instrument panel also goes off.At speeds above 43 mph (70km/h), the system is automatically deactivated; the indicator lamp in the button goes off.MalfunctionIn the event of a system malfunction, this warning lamp comes on on the instrument panel, accompanied by an onscreen message.Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.You can deactivate the ASR and DSC systems by turning the knob to the "OFF" position.The ASR and DSC systems will no longer act on the operation of the engine or of the brakes in the event of a change of trajectory.These systems are reactivated automatically from 31 mph (50km/h) and whenever the ignition is switched on.RecommendationsYour vehicle is designed principally to drive on tarmac roads but it allows you to occasionally drive on other less passable terrain.However, it does not permit off-road driving such as:–crossing and driving on terrain which could damage the underbody or strip away components (fuel pipe, fuel cooler, etc.) due to obstacles or stones in particular,–driving on terrain with steep gradients and poor grip,–crossing a stream.Hill Assist Descent ControlSystem that provides assistance when descending on loose or soft surfaces (gravel, mud, etc.) or a steep gradient.This system reduces the risk of slip or loss of control of the vehicle when descending, whether going forward or in reverse.During a descent, it assists the driver in maintaining a constant speed, depending on the gear engaged, while progressively releasing the brakes.For the system to activate, the slope must be greater than 5%.The system can be used with the gearbox in neutral.Otherwise engage a gear corresponding to the speed to prevent the engine stalling.With an automatic gearbox, the system can be used with the selector at N, D or R.When the system is regulating, the Active Safety Brake system is automatically deactivated.The system is not available:–if the speed of the vehicle is above 43 mph (70km/h),–if the speed of the vehicle is being controlled by the Adaptive Cruise Control, depending on the type of gearbox.Switching onBy default, the system is not selected.The state of the function is not saved when the ignition is switched off.The driver can select the system when the engine is running, when the vehicle is stationary or when moving at speeds up to approximately 31 mph (50km/h).►To select the system, at speeds below 31 mph (50km/h), press this button until its indicator lights up; this lamp appears in green in the instrument panel.The system becomes active at speeds below 19 mph (30km/h).►When the vehicle begins its descent, you can release the accelerator and brake pedals; the system regulates the speed:–if the gearbox is in first or second gear, the speed decreases and the indicatorlamp flashes rapidly,–if the gearbox is in neutral or if the clutch pedal is depressed, the speed decreases and the indicatorlamp flashes slowly; in this case, the maintained descent speed is lower.
