Video tutorial

In this video, you will see how to disable traction control on the Citroën C3: Traction control (ASR or TCS) is a device that prevents the driven wheels from slipping: it will intervene when traction is poor, such as in mud, snow, or ice; in these cases, the control unit will activate traction control, cutting the power of the engine transferred to the wheel with better grip.

But if you want to 'play' and perhaps have some fun drifting in the snow? It is possible to temporarily disable the function via the touch screen.

From the home screen, go to 'drive' and then to 'safety'. Simply uncheck 'traction control'. Remember to reactivate it, although according to the manufacturer's instructions, it should reactivate automatically when the vehicle is restarted.

Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat.
