Any change of driving
mode implemented by
pressing the switch 1
reactivates the ESC and traction
control functions (refer to "Choice
of driving mode in Section 2).
Emergency brake assist
This system supplements the ABS and
helps reduce vehicle stopping
distances.
Operating principle
The system is for detecting an
emergency braking situation. In this
case, the braking assistance
immediately develops maximum power
and may trigger ABS regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long as
the brake pedal is applied.
Hazard warning lights switching on
Depending on the vehicle, these may
light up in the event of sudden
deceleration.
Braking anticipation
Depending on the vehicle, when you
rapidly release the accelerator, the
system anticipates the braking
manoeuvre in order to reduce stopping
distances.
Special cases
When using the cruise control:
– if you use the accelerator pedal
when you release it, the system may
be triggered;
– if you do not use the accelerator, the
system will not be triggered.
Operating faults
When the system detects an operating
fault, the "WARNING: Check Braking
System" appears on the instrument
panel along with the warning
light.
Consult an approved dealer.
These functions are an
additional aid in the
event of critical driving
conditions, enabling the
vehicle behaviour to be adapted
to suit the driving conditions.
The functions do not take the
place of the driver. They do not
increase the vehicle's limits
and should not encourage you
to drive more quickly. Therefore,
they can under no circumstances
replace the vigilance or
responsibility of the driver when
manoeuvring the vehicle (the
driver must always be ready for
sudden incidents which may
occur when driving).
Hill start assistance
Depending on the gradient of the
incline, this system assists the driver
when starting on a hill. It prevents the
vehicle from rolling backwards by
automatically applying the brakes
when the driver lifts his/her foot off the
brake pedal to depress the accelerator
pedal.
