Safety
Intelligent traction control
system ("Snow motion")
Your vehicle has a system to help driving on
snow: intelligent traction control.
This system detects situations of difficult
surface adhesion that could make it difficult to
move off or make progress on deep fresh snow
or compacted snow.
In these situations, the intelligent traction
control limits the amount of wheel slip to
provide the best traction and trajectory control
for your vehicle.
In extremely severe conditions (deep snow,
mud, ...), when it proves impossible to move off,
it may be useful to temporarily deactivate the
ESP/ASR systems to allow the wheels to spin
freely and so allow movement of the vehicle.
Operation
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
In emergency braking, press
very firmly without releasing the
pressure.
When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
make sure that these are approved for
your vehicle.
Normal operation of the ABS may make
itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake
pedal.
When this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message, it indicates that
there is a fault with the ABS, which
could cause loss of control of the vehicle when
braking.
When this warning lamp comes on,
coupled with the STOP warning
lamp, accompanied by an audible
signal and a message, it indicates
that there is a fault with the electronic brake
force distribution (EBFD), which could cause
loss of control of the vehicle when braking.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In both cases, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The use of snow tyres is strongly
recommended on surfaces offering low levels
of adhesion.
