Pedalling in FE

The pedalling in the 1st half of the bar may come from Chopin – it could have been added still in the base text to FE or added in a proofreading of this edition. However, it seems to be more likely that we are dealing with a mistake resulting from similarity of the first figures in the L.H. in bars 16-18. It is confirmed by a correction – deleting the  sign – in FES.
