DRIVING CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS
Driver assistance with a
trailer
This system helps to maintain control
over the vehicle while using a trailer.
It detects shaking caused by towing a
trailer under certain driving conditions.
Operating conditions
– The towbar must be approved by an
authorised dealer;
– the harness must be approved by an
authorised dealer;
– the towbar must be connected to the
vehicle.
Operating principle
The function stabilises the vehicle by:
– asymmetric braking of the front
wheels to reduce shaking caused by
the trailer;
– braking of all four wheels and limita-
tion on engine torque to reduce the
vehicle speed until the shaking has
stopped.

Warning light flashes on the in-
strument panel to inform the driver.

Emergency brake assist
This system supplements the ABS
and helps reduce vehicle stopping dis-
tances.
Operating principle
The system is for detecting an emer-
gency braking situation. In this case,
the braking assistance immediately de-
velops maximum power and may trig-
ger ABS regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long as
the brake pedal is applied.
Brake lights come on
Depending on the vehicle, these may
flash in the event of sudden decelera-
tion.
Braking anticipation
Depending on the vehicle, when you
rapidly release the accelerator, the
system anticipates the braking ma-
noeuvre in order to reduce stopping
distances.
When using the cruise control:
– if you use the accelerator, when you
release it, the system may be trig-
gered;
– if you do not use the accelerator, the
system will not be triggered.
Operating faults
When the system detects an operating
fault the message "WARNING: Check
Braking System" appears on the instru-
©
ment panel along with the
ing light.
Consult an approved dealer.
