Brief stop
To apply the electronic parking brake
manually (when stopping at a red light,
or stopping when the engine is running,
etc.): pull and release the switch 3. The
brake is released as soon as the vehi-
cle is started up again.
Special feature related to the Stop and Start function: if the driver's seat
is unfastened before the engine goes into standby due to the Stop and
Start function, make sure that the parking brake is applied: the
dicator light on the instrument panel confirms this. Risk of loss of immobilisa-
tion.
Special cases
To park on a slope or while towing a
trailer, for example, pull switch 3 for
a few seconds to gain the maximum
braking.
To park the vehicle without applying the
electronic parking brake (if there is a
risk of freezing, for example):
– with the engine running, while simul-
taneously keeping the brake pedal
and switch 3 depressed, switch off
the engine by pressing the engine
Start/Stop button 1;
– in gear, release the brake pedal and
switch 3.
For vehicles fitted with the Stop and
Start function, with the engine on
standby, the electronic parking brake is
automatically activated if the driver un-
fastens their seat belt or opens the driv-
er's door or gets out of their seat.
