EnglishSafety -> Electronic stability control for your Peugeot 3008 2016-2023
Safety
For technical reasons, in particular to
improve the quality of telematic services
for customers, the Manufacturer reserves the
right to carry out updates to the vehicle's
on-board telematic system at any time.
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so and switch off
the ignition.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Anti-lock braking system
(ABS)/Electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
These systems enhance the vehicle’s stability
and handling during braking, and enable greater
control while cornering, particularly on poor or
slippery road surfaces.
ABS prevents wheel locking in the event of
emergency braking.
Electronic brake force distribution (EBFD)
manages overall braking pressure on each
individual wheel.

When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
ensure that these are approved for your
vehicle.
If you benefit from the Peugeot Connect
Packs offer with the SOS and Assistance
Pack included, there are additional services
available to you in your personal space, via
the website for your country.
For information about the SOS and
Assistance Pack, please refer to the general
conditions for these services.
After an impact
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.
► When braking in an emergency, depress
the pedal very firmly and maintain this
pressure.
Emergency braking
assistance (EBA)
This system reduces the emergency stopping
distance, by optimising the braking pressure.
It is triggered in relation to the speed at which
the brake pedal is depressed. The effect of this
is a reduction in the resistance of the pedal and
an increase in braking efficiency.
Electronic stability control
(ESC)
Normal operation of the ABS may make
itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake
pedal.
The electronic stability control programme
includes the following systems:
The fixed illumination of this warning lamp
signals that there is a fault with the ABS.
The vehicle retains conventional braking. Drive
carefully at a moderate speed.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
This warning lamp, when lit together with
the STOP and ABS warning lamps,
accompanied by a message and an audible
signal, indicates an EBFD malfunction.
You must stop the vehicle.
– Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and Electronic
brake force distribution (EBFD).
– Emergency braking assistance (EBA).
– Anti-slip regulation (ASR).
– Dynamic stability control (DSC).
– Trailer stability assist (TSA).
Intelligent traction control
Depending on version, the vehicle has a system
to help with driving on snow: intelligent traction
control.
This system detects situations of poor surface
grip that could make it difficult to move off
or make progress on deep fresh snow or
compacted snow.

Safety
In these situations, the system limits the amount
of wheel spin to provide the best traction and
trajectory control for the vehicle.
ground, etc.), it may be advisable to deactivate
the ASR system, so that the wheels can turn
freely and regain grip.
Reactivate the system as soon as the level of
grip permits.
Correct operation of these systems depends
on compliance with the manufacturer's
recommendations relating to the wheels
(tyres and rims), braking and electronic
components, as well as the assembly and
repair procedures provided by PEUGEOT
dealers.
The use of snow tyres is strongly
recommended on surfaces offering low
levels of grip.
This function is set via the Driving/
Vehicle touch screen menu.
Deactivation is confirmed by the lighting
of this indicator lamp on the instrument
panel and the display of a message.
The ASR system is reactivated automatically
every time the ignition is switched off, or at
speeds over 31 mph (50 km/h).
In order to ensure that these systems remain
effective in wintry conditions, the use of snow
or all-season tyres is recommended. All four
wheels must be fitted with tyres approved for
your vehicle.
All tyre specifications are listed on the
tyre/paint label. For more information
on Identification markings, refer to the
corresponding section.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
/ Dynamic stability control
(DSC)
Anti-slip regulation (or traction control) optimises
traction by using engine braking and by applying
the brakes on the driving wheels to avoid one
or more wheels spinning. It also enhances the
vehicle's directional stability.
If there is a difference between the vehicle’s
trajectory and the path desired by the driver, the
dynamic stability control system automatically
uses engine braking and the brakes on one or
more wheels to return the vehicle to the desired
path, within the limits of the laws of physics.
These systems are activated automatically every
time the vehicle is started.
Reactivation is manual below 31 mph (50 km/h).
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, this warning
lamp comes on on the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a message and
an audible signal.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Trailer stability assist (TSA)
When towing, this system reduces the risk of the
vehicle or trailer snaking.
Operation
The system is activated automatically when the
ignition is switched on.
The electronic stability control system (ESC)
must not have any faults.
The vehicle speed must be between 37 and 99
mph (60 and 160 km/h).
If the system detects that the trailer is
snaking, it applies the brakes to stabilise
the trailer and reduces engine power, if
necessary, to slow the vehicle (indicated by the
ASR/DSC
These systems enhance safety during
normal driving, but should not encourage
the driver to take extra risks or drive at high
speed.
It is in conditions of reduced grip (rain, snow,
ice) that the risk of loss of grip increases. It
is therefore important for your safety to keep
these systems activated in all conditions, and
particularly in difficult conditions.
These systems are activated in the event
of a problem with grip or trajectory
(confirmed by this warning lamp flashing on the
instrument panel).
Deactivation/Reactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle
which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft

flashing of this warning lamp on the instrument
panel and the brake lamps coming on).
For information on weights and towed loads,
refer to the Engine technical data and towed
loads section or your vehicle’s registration
certificate.
When driving on slippery or poor surfaces, the
system may not be able to prevent sudden
trailer snaking.
Operating modes
Snow
5
This mode constantly adapts the level of wheel
spin to offer maximum traction according to the
snow conditions (a lot of wheel spin in thick
snow; very little on ice). The wheel spin is also
adapted to the conditions encountered when
driving uphill by optimising the acceleration of
the vehicle.
Advanced Grip Control
This special patented traction control system
improves grip on snow, mud and sand.
To ensure safe driving with a Towing device,
refer to the corresponding section.
Malfunction
For optimum grip on snow, it is
recommended that you fit the vehicle
with winter tyres.
For optimum system performance, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer to choose the most suitable
tyres.
(mode active up to 50 mph (80 km/h))
If a fault occurs, this warning lamp lights
up on the instrument panel, accompanied
by a message and an audible signal.
To continue towing a trailer, reduce speed and
drive carefully!
Mud
This mode, when moving off, allows considerable
spin on the wheel with the least grip to optimise
clearing of the mud and to regain grip. At the
same time, the wheel with the most grip is
controlled in such a way as to transmit as much
traction torque as possible.
When moving, the system optimises wheel spin
to respond to the driver's requirements as fully
as possible.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Recommendations
The vehicle is designed principally
to drive on tarmac roads, but it may
occassionally drive on other less passable
terrain.
However, it does not permit off-road driving:
– Driving on terrain that can damage the
underbody or tear off elements (e.g. fuel
pipe, fuel cooler) by obstacles or stones in
particular.
The trailer stability control system
provides an extra safety feature under
normal driving conditions, when following the
recommendations for use of trailers and
current legislation in force in your country. It
must not encourage the driver to take extra
risks, such as using a trailer in unsuitable
conditions of operation (e.g. excessive load,
exceeded nose weight, worn or under-inflated
tyres, faulty braking system) or driving at
excessive speed.
(mode active up to 31 mph (50 km/h))
Sand
This mode allows little spin on the two driving
wheels at the same time to allow the vehicle to
move forward and limit the risks of getting stuck
in the sand.
– Driving on terrain with steep gradients and
poor grip.
– Crossing a waterway.
(mode active up to 75 mph (120 km/h))
In certain cases, the system may not detect
trailer snaking, particularly with a light trailer.
Do not use the other modes on sand as
the vehicle may become stuck.
