ASSISTED PARKING BRAKE
Applying the assisted
parking brake
Manual mode
Pull out and release handle 1.
Automatic mode
(depending on country)
The electronic parking brake ensures
automatic vehicle immobilisation when
the engine is stopped by pressing
the engine start/stop button.
In all other instances, e.g. engine stall-
ing, the assisted parking brake is not
applied automatically. Manual mode
must be used.
Indicator light 2 on the dashboard and
indicator light 3 on the instrument panel
light up to confirm that the assisted
parking brake is applied. Indicator
lights 3 and 2 go out when the doors
are locked. Depending on the vehicle,
the “parking brake applied” message
may appear on the instrument panel.
Note:
When the driver’s door is opened, if the
assisted parking brake is not applied,
a beep will sound and, depending on
the vehicle, the message “apply park-
ing brake” appears on the instrument
panel, in this case, to immobilise the ve-
hicle; you must then release handle 1.
For some country-specific versions, the
automatic application function is not
activated. Refer to the information on
“manual mode”.
Releasing the assisted
parking brake
Manual mode
To release the assisted parking brake:
with the engine running, pull handle 1
while pressing unlocking button 4 and
release. Indicator lights 3 and 2 go out.
Automatic mode
The brake will be released automati-
cally as soon as the vehicle starts and
accelerates.
Before leaving the vehi-
cle, check that the assisted
parking brake is fully ap-
plied.
Indicator lights 2 on the dashboard
and 3 on the instrument panel light
up to confirm that it has been ap-
plied.
