Operating check
When a malfunction of the sys-
tems occurs, the switch light
flashes and the warning light
comes on, accompanied by an
audible signal and the mes-
sage 'ESP/ASR system faulty' on the
multi-function display.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have the
system checked.
Disarming the ASR/ESP
systems
In exceptional conditions (starting a
vehicle which is bogged down, stuck
in snow, on soft ground...), it may be
advisable to disarm the ASR system,
so that the wheels can move freely
and regain grip.
☞
Press the 'ESP
OFF'
switch, located under the
steering wheel to the left.
The switch lights up and the
warning light comes on,
accompanied by an audible
signal and the message
'ASR/ESP system de-acti-
vated' on the multi–function
display : the ASR and ESP systems
no longer have any effect on the
engine operation.
These are triggered again :
☞
automatically if the ignition is
switched off,
☞
manually by pressing the switch
again.
DYNAMIC STABILITY
CONTROL (ESP) AND
TRACTION CONTROL (ASR)
These systems are linked and com-
plementary to the ABS system.
In the event of a significant variation
between the trajectory of the vehicle
and the path required by the driver,
the ESP system acts automatically
on the engine and on the brake of
one or more wheels, to put the vehi-
cle back on course.
The traction control (ASR) system
optimises drive, in order to avoid the
wheels slipping, by acting on the
brakes of the drive wheels and on
the engine. It also enables the direc-
tional stability of the vehicle to be
improved during acceleration.
Operation of the ESP
and ASR systems
When one of the two sys-
tems is in operation, this
indicator light flashes.
The ESP system offers
exceptional safety in nor-
mal driving, but this should
not encourage the driver to
take extra risks or drive at
high speed.
The correct functioning of this sys-
tem depends on observation of the
manufacturer's recommendations
regarding wheels (tyres and rims),
the braking components and the
electronic components, as well as
the PEUGEOT assembly and
operation procedures.
After an impact, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer
