The ABS system does not provide shorter
braking distances. On very slippery surfaces
(black ice, oil...) the ABS can extend braking
distances. For emergency braking, press the
brake pedal hard and do not release it, even
on a slipper surface; you will then be able to
steer the vehicle and avoid an obstacle.
System which, in an emergency, enables
you to obtain the optimum braking pressure
more quickly, thus reducing the stopping
distance.
panel screen, it indicates a fault with
the anti-lock braking system which could result in
loss of control of the vehicle when braking.
Operation
It is triggered by the speed at which the
brake pedal is pressed.
When replacing wheels (tyres and
rims), ensure that they conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
If this warning lamp comes on,

The effect of this is a reduction in the
resistance of the pedal and an increase in
braking efficiency.
it indicates a fault with the electronic brake
force distribution which could result in loss
of control of the vehicle when braking.
When braking in an emergency, press
firmly without releasing the pressure.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Switching off
In either case, contact a CITROËN dealer or
a qualified workshop.
This system cannot be deactivated by
the driver.
For maximum braking efficiency, a
bedding-in period of around 300 miles
(500 kilometres) is needed. During this
period it is recommended that you avoid
harsh, repeated or prolonged braking.
