Parking brake (02_22, 02_23, 02_24)

With the vehicle at a standstill and the suspension locking system engaged, it is pos-
sible to get off the vehicle without using the stand. For safety reasons, it is com-
pulsory to press the hand brake lever, indicated in the picture, bringing it from
position «A» to position «B».
With the parking brake «B» engaged, the «D» warning light, on the instrument panel,
lights up.
When the parking brake is engaged in position B and the ignition switch is turned to
LOCK the security system is activated, which disallows the disengagement of the
02_22
parking brake. To disengage it, turn the ignition switch to position «OFF» or «ON». If
the switch is set to position «LOCK» it is still possible to engage the parking brake.
WARNING
