Weird, 09 Pug 207 does it so I assumed the newer DS3 would! Unless they disabled it for some reason

[germinus]

I think its disabled.... I had a 58 plate 207 before my ds3 and that also didnt have that feature

It's only came on once for me.. I had just changed the brake pads and thought I'd test them out so sped up to 50 and pressed on the brakes as hard as I could.. not a good idea looking back on it but they worked!

[germinus]

lol well I do it all day while teaching people to drive!

If you do an emergency stop in a DS3 the EBA kicks in and assists the stop and the hazard lights kick in....they stop automatically when normal driving resumes

Not on mine :o(

Check it out again, it should activate, if not head back to a dealer to get it checked out.
BUT you do have hit the brakes hard for it to kick in, a half hearted stop won't do the trick

[germinus]

Trust me when I am teaching pupils E S the breaks are hit hard!! Dont need to take it to dealer I can activate it myself.

What I was trying to say is that you shouldn't have to activate that function, it exists and is a standard feature, and IF its not working there may well be an underling issue.
I'm sure that Biggie can confirm that this is as I believe.

Ah I see what you mean!! I will hook it up to lexia tomorow and have a lil look

The hazzards should only activate when braking harsh from motorway speeds around 50/60, i drive home from work at 1230am every night.. and manage to activate them on every roundabout on the way home.. fun times

Automatic operation of
hazard warning lamps

When braking in an emergency, depending on
the deceleration, the hazard warning lamps
come on automatically.
They switch off automatically the first time you
accelerate.
 You can also switch them off by pressing
the button
