Special situationsEMERGENCY BRAKING

In the event of a failure of the main service
brake or in an exceptional situation (e.g.
driver taken ill, under instruction, etc) a
continuous pull on control lever
A
will
stop the vehicle
.
The dynamic stability control system
(DSC) 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". In certain situations (e.g. starting the
hybrid system), the parking brake
can automatically alter its force. This
is normal operation.
To advance your vehicle a few centi-
metres without starting the engine, but
with the ignition on, press on the brake
pedal and release the parking brake by
pulling
then releasing
control lever A
.
The full release of the parking brake is
confi rmed by the extinction of warning
lamp in control lever A
and of the warn-
ing lamp in the instrument panel and
display of a message that the parking
brake is off.
If the parking brake malfunctions
while applied
or if the battery runs
fl at, an emergency release is always
possible.
If a failure of the DSC system is
signalled by illumination of this
warning lamp, then braking sta-
bility is not guaranteed.

The emergency braking must
only be used in exceptional
circumstances.
In this event, stability must be assured
by the driver by repeating alternate “pull
release” actions on control lever A
.

longer guaranteed once the manual
emergency release has been de-
ployed and the manual control does
not allow the re-application of your
parking brake.

ver A
, or stopping / starting the hybrid
system while the release device is en-
gaged.
Take care not to allow moisture or dust
in the proximity of the protective cover.

it stationary, if the brake pedal is
pressed), with the hybrid system ac-
tive, by putting the gear selector into
