Dynamic stability control (DSC)
Activation
This system is activated automatically
each time the vehicle is started.
It comes into operation in the event of a
grip or trajectory problem.
This is indicated by fl ashing of this
warning lamp in the instrument
panel.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle
which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on
soft ground...), it may be advisable to deac-
tivate the DSC system, so that the wheels
can move freely and regain grip.
Press the "ESP OFF" button.
This warning lamp and the indi-
cator lamp in the button come
on: the DSC system no longer
acts on the operation of the inter-
nal combustion engine.
Reactivation
The system is reactivated automatically
each time the ignition is switched back
on or from 30 mph (50 km/h).
Press the "ESP OFF" button again
to reactivate it manually.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible sig-
nal and a message in the multi-
function screen, this indicates a
malfunction of the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop to have the system
checked.
The DSC system offers excep-
tional safety in normal driving,
but this should not encourage the
driver to take extra risks or drive at high
speed.
The correct functioning of the system
depends on observation of the manu-
facturer's recommendations regarding
the wheels (tyres and rims), the braking
components, the electronic components
and the PEUGEOT assembly and op-
eration procedures.
After an impact, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
