Good practice
The anti-lock braking system comes into
operation automatically when there is a risk
of wheel lock. It does not reduce the braking
distance.
ABS
in the screen, it indicates a malfunction of
the electronic brake force distribution which
could result in a loss of control of the vehicle
on braking.
On very slippery surfaces (ice, oil, etc...)
the ABS may increase the braking distance.
When braking in an emergency, do not
hesitate to press the brake pedal firmly,
without releasing the pressure, even on a
slippery surface, you will then be able to
continue to manoeuvre the vehicle to avoid
an obstacle.
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In both cases, contact a CITROËN dealer or
a qualified workshop.
Normal operation of the ABS may be felt by
slight vibration of the brake pedal.

In an emergency, this system enables the
optimum braking pressure to be reached more
quickly, press the pedal firmly without releasing it.
