When the hand brake «B» is engaged, warning light «R» on the instrument panel turns
on.
When the hand brake is set to «B» and the key switch is turned to position «1», the
safety system that prevents the hand brake from getting released is activated. To
release the hand brake, turn the key switch to «2» or «3». If the switch is set to «1 » ,
the hand brake can also be engaged.
WARNING
IT IS PREFERABLE TO USE THE STAND IF THE VEHICLE STOPS ON A STEEP
SLOPE.
ALWAYS OBSERVE THE CUSTOMARY SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR CASES
WHEN THE VEHICLE STOPS ON A STEEP SLOPE. TURN THE WHEELS SO
THAT THE POTENTIAL MOVEMENT CAUSED BY THE SLOPE TAKES THAT
WHEEL AGAINST THE SIDEWALK. WITH THE STEERING LOCK ENGAGED,
MANOEUVRE SO THAT THE SIDEWALK IS TO THE RIGHT WHEN YOUR VEHI-
CLE IS PARKED UPHILL AND TO THE LEFT WHEN PARKED DOWNHILL.
If the WARNING light «C» turns on (flashes), it means that there is a failure in the front
suspension locking system. Therefore, it is necessary to contact an Authorised Serv-
ice Centre. If the front suspension is locked , it can be unlocked by operating the
«Q» switch twice quickly on the unlocking position «2». Once the suspension is un-
locked, the vehicle can be normally used, except for the locking system which will be
disengaged.
For some cases of failure, the vehicle speed is auto-limited to 30 Km/h. This automatic
procedure is activated to enhance safety until the failure is eliminated.
Always contact an Authorised Service Centre.

If the continuous sound alarm is activated when the WARNING light «C» turns on
(steadily), try to unlock the system by operating the «Q» switch twice quickly to the
unlocking position «2». If it cannot be unlocked, contact an Authorised Service Cen-
tre.
