Electric parking brake
The system provides, in automatic operation,
the application of the parking brake on
switching off the engine and release as the
vehicle moves off.
The driver can take over at any time to apply
or release the parking brake, by operating the
control lever:
F by briefly pulling the control lever to apply
the brake,
F by briefly pushing the control lever, while
pressing the foot brake, to release it.
Automatic mode is activated by default.
Indicator lamp
This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel and in the control
lever to confirm the application of the
parking brake.
It goes off to confirm the release of the parking
brake.
The indicator lamp in the control lever flashes
during manual application or release.
In the event of a battery failure, the
electric parking brake no longer works.
As a safety measure, if the parking
brake is not applied, immobilise the
vehicle by engaging a gear (with a
manual gearbox) or placing the chocks
supplied against one of the wheels.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
