Never leave a child alone inside the vehicle with the ignition on, as they could release the parking brake.
Hill start assist
Manual operation
The MANUAL application/release of the parking brake is possible permanently by pulling/pushing control B.
Before leaving the vehicle, check that warning lamp A (!) (red) on the instru-ment panel is permanently lit and that warning lamp P (red) on con-trol B is lit.
With the engine running, if you leave the vehicle, manually apply the park-ing brake.
Do not leave the vehicle while it is being held in the temporary immobilisation hill start assist phase.
To aid starting on a gradient, your vehicle is equipped with a system which keeps it immobilised for a short time (about 2 seconds), the approximate time it takes to move your foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.
This function is only active when:The vehicle is completely sta-tionary, with your foot on the brake pedal.
In particular conditions on a slope.With the driver's door closed.
