STEERING LOCK - IGNITION - STARTER51II-1
WARNING

NING LAMP TO GO OUT. IF THE ENGINE IS NOT RUNNING, THE STEERING
WILL NOT HAVE POWER ASSISTANCE AND THERE MAY BE NO RESERVE OF PRESSURE AVAILABLE TO OPERATE THE FOOTBRAKE. THERE IS ALSO ARISK OF THE STEERING LOCK ENGAGING AND THE SAFETY FEATURES NOT OPERATING IF THE IGNITION IS NOT SWITCHED ON. ONLY IN AN
EMERGENCY SITUATION SHOULD YOU ATTEMPT TO MOVE A VEHICLE
WITHOUT STARTING THE ENGINE. TAKE ALL THE NECESSARY SAFETY

BRAKESII-3
54
Handbrake
To create a passage between the front seats, the handbrake lever is mounted
to the left of the driverÕs seat. The handbrake is operated by pulling the lever firmly up - pressing the foot-
brake will reduce the effort required to apply the handbrake. The handbrake is capable of holding the vehicle on all slopes likely to be
encountered but increased effort will be needed on steep slopes.
In all circumstances, as a precautionary measure, engage first gear.On steep slopes, turn the steering towards the kerb.
To release the brake, pull the lever lightly up, press the button on the end of the lever and return the lever to the fully down position. The warning lamp will come on if the handbrake is on or not fully released when the engine is running .

BRAKES55II-4
ABS - Anti-lock Braking System* This system improves vehicle safety by preventing the wheels from locking under emergency braking or when
braking on surfaces offering poor adhesion.
It thus also allows control of the steering to be retained. The operation of the various electronic components of the system is continuously monitored, both before and during your
journey. On switching on the ignition, the ABS lamp will light for approximately two seconds. If it stays on or lights when
driving, the ABS computer has detected a fault and has disconnected the ABS system. If the lamp lights whilst driving, it
again indicates that a fault has been detected and that the ABS system is inactive. In both situations, the normal braking
system is not affected and will continue to function as a conventional braking system without ABS. Nevertheless, to re-
establish the full safety features of the ABS system, It is recommended that the vehicle be examined by a dealer as soonas possible.
On slippery roads (loose stones, snow, ice, etc.), it is imperative to drive with caution.
