If this warning lamp comes on, together with the STOP and
ABS warning lamps, accompanied by an audible signal and
a message in the screen, it indicates a malfunction of the
electronic brake force distribution which could result in loss of control of
the vehicle when braking.
BRAKING ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS
Group of supplementary systems which help you to obtain optimum
braking in complete safety in emergency situations:
-
-
-
anti-lock braking system (ABS),
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
electronic brake force distribution (EBFD),
emergency braking assistance (EBA).
In either case, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
When replacing wheels (tyres and rims), ensure that they conform
to the manufacturer's recommendations.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM ANd
ELECTRONIC BRAKE FORCE dISTRIBUTION
Linked systems which improve the stability and manoeuvrability of your
vehicle when braking, in particular on poor or slippery surfaces.

EMERGENCY BRAKING ASSISTANCE
The anti-lock braking system comes into operation automatically when
there is a risk of wheel lock.
System which, in an emergency, enables you to obtain the optimum
braking pressure more quickly, thus reducing the stopping distance.
Normal operation of the ABS may make itself felt by slight vibration of
the brake pedal.
Activation
It is triggered by the speed at which the brake pedal is pressed.
When braking in an emergency, press very firmly without releasing
the pressure.
The effect of this is a reduction in the resistance of the pedal and an
increase in braking efficiency.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on, accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the screen, it indicates a malfunction
of the anti-lock braking system which could result in loss of
control of the vehicle when braking.
When braking in an emergency, press firmly without releasing the
pressure.
