The ESP system offers increased
driving safety but is not in place to
encourage the driver to take addi-
tional risks or to drive at excessive
speeds.
The operation of this system is
assured provided that the manufac-
turer’s recommendations concern-
ing the wheels (tyres and rims),
braking components and electrical
components are observed, as well
as the fi tting and repair procedures
used by CITROËN dealers and
g p p
qualifi ed workshops.
Following an accident, have the
system checked by a CITROËN
g ,
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAMME (ESP) AND TRACTION
CONTROL (ASR)
These systems are closely associated with ABS and additional to it. In the
event of a loss of control of the vehicle by the driver, the ESP system acts
automatically on one or more wheels and also on the engine to bring the
vehicle back on trajectory. The ASR system optimises traction and prevents
wheel spin by acting on the brakes of the driving wheels as well as on the
engine. It also improves steering stability during acceleration.
OPERATION
When either the ESP or the ASR system is brought into operation
the warning lamp "ESP/ASR" fl ashes.
DEACTIVATION
In exceptional conditions (vehicle stuck in snow, soft ground, etc.) it may
prove useful to deactivate the ESP/ASR systems to allow the wheels to
spin and thus regain traction.
Press on button A, the "ESP/ASR" warning lamp, as well as the lamp on
the button A, light up. The ESP/ASR systems are no longer active.
The ESP/ASR systems will activate again:
Automatically after the ignition has been switched off.
Automatically when you drive at above approx. 50 km/h (approx. 30 mph).
y
Manually with another press on button A.
OPERATIONAL ANOMALY
Should there be a system malfunction, the "ESP/ASR" warning lamp will
light up.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed workshop to have the system
checked.
