- the displaying of the message "Parking brake applied".
When the driver’s door is opened with
the engine running, a beep is heard and
a message is displayed if the parking
brake has not been applied, unless the
selector lever is in position P (Park) in
the case of an automatic gearbox.
Manual release

ning, to release the parking brake,

press on the brake pedal or the accel-
erator, pull then release control A .
The full application of the parking brake
is confi rmed by:

Manual application Maximum application
If necessary, you can utilise maximum
application of the parking brake. It is
obtained by means of a long pull on

warning lamp on the instru-
ment panel is permanently lit.
Maximum application is essential:
- in the case of a vehicle towing a caravan or a trailer, if the automatic
functions are activated but you
are applying the parking brake
manually,
- when the gradient you are parked on is variable in its effect (e.g. on a
ferry, in a lorry, during towing),

Particular situations
In certain situations (e.g. start-
ing the engine), the parking brake
can automatically alter its force. This
is normal operation.
Emergency braking
In the event of a failure of the braking by
means of the brake pedal or in an ex-
ceptional situation (e.g. driver taken ill,
under instruction, etc) a continuous pull
on control A will stop the vehicle.
The electronic stability programme
(ESP) provides stability during emer-
gency braking.
If the emergency braking malfunctions,
one of the following messages will be
displayed:
- "Parking brake faulty".
- "Parking brake control faulty".
To advance your vehicle a few cen-
timetres without starting the engine,
but with the ignition on, press on the
brake pedal and release the parking
brake
by pulling then releasing con-
trol A . The full release of the parking
brake is confi rmed by the extinction
of warning lamp on control A and of
the warning lamp on the instrument
panel and the displaying of the mes-
sage "Parking brake released".
If the parking brake malfunctions

while applied or if the battery runs
fl at, an emergency release ia always
possible. If a failure of the ESP system
is signalled by the lighting of
this warning lamp, then brak-
ing stability is not guaranteed.
In this event, stability must be assured
by the driver by repeating alternate "pull
release" actions on control A .
The emergency braking must
only be used in exceptional
circumstances.

133
Emergency unlocking
For safety reasons, after this
manoeuvre it is essential to
contact a PEUGEOT dealer
urgently.
Following an emergency unlocking,
immobilisation of the vehicle is no
longer guaranteed once the manual
emergency unlocking has been de-
ployed and the manual control does
not allow the re-application of your
parking brake.
Take no action, either on control A , or
stopping starting the engine while the
unlocking device is engaged.
Take care not to allow moisture or
dust in the proximity of the plug.

 Immobilise the vehicle, with the en-
gine running, by engaging fi rst gear
(manual gearbox), position P (auto-
matic gearbox) or M or R (6-speed
electronic gearbox).

 Switch off the engine but leave the
ignition on. If it is impossible to im-
mobilise the vehicle, do not action
the control and urgently contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.

 Fetch the two vehicle blocks and
the unlocking device, located under
the boot carpet (see "Changing a
wheel" in the "Practical information"
section).

 Immobilise the vehicle by placing
blocks at the front and at the rear of
one of the rear wheels.

 Slide the front left-hand seat back
as far as possible.

 Lift up the fl oor plug B in the carpet
under the seat.

 Remove the cap C on the tube D
with the unlocking device.

 Place the unlocking device in the
tube D .

 Turn the unlocking device clock-
wise. For safety reasons , it is

essential to continue turning the
device as far as it will go or until you
hear a knocking noise. The parking
brake is released.
 Remove the unlocking device and
store it with the blocks in the tool-
box.
- The operation of the parking brake reinitialises when the igni-
tion is switched off then on again.
If the reinitialisation of the parking
brake proves impossible, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
- The subsequent time required for application may be longer than dur-
ing normal operation.

HILL START ASSIST
System which keeps your vehicle im-
mobilised temporarily (approximately
2 seconds) when starting on a gradi-
ent, the 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 stationary, with your foot on the brake pedal,
- in particular conditions on a slope,
- with the driver’s door closed.
The hill start assist function cannot be
deactivated.
Operation

On an ascending slope, with the ve-
hicle stationary, the vehicle is held
for a brief moment when you release
the brake pedal:
- provided you are in fi rst gear or neu- tral on a manual gearbox,
- provided you are in A or M on an
electronic gearbox,
- provided you are in D or M on an
automatic gearbox.
On a descending slope, with the ve-
hicle stationary and reverse gear en-
gaged, the vehicle is held for a brief
moment when you release the brake
pedal.
Do not exit the vehicle while
it is being held in the hill start
assist phase.
If you need to exit the vehicle with the
engine running, manually apply the
parking brake then ensure that the
parking brake warning lamp and the
warning lamp P on the lever (of the
electric brake) are permanently on.

these warning lamps come on. Contact
a PEUGEOT dealer to have the system
checked.
