The electric parking brake combines
2 operational modes:


- Automatic application/release

Application is automatic when the
engine stops, release is automatic
on use of the accelerator (activated
by default),

- Manual application/release

The parking brake can be applied /
released manually by pulling control
lever A
.
ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE



Deactivation is recommended
in particularly cold conditions
(ice) and during towing (break-
down, caravan...). Refer to the
"Manual release" paragraph.

Programming the mode
Depending on the country of registration
of the vehicle, the automatic application
when the engine is switched off and the
automatic release when you press the
accelerator can be deactivated.
If this warning lamp comes
on in the instrument panel,
the automatic mode is deac-
tivated. Activation / deactivation of
this function is possible by
a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
The parking brake is then applied and
released manually. When the driver's
door is opened, there is an audible sig-
nal and a message is displayed if the
brake is not applied.

Do not place any object (packet
of cigarettes, telephone, ...) be-
hind the electric brake control.

With the vehicle stationary, to apply the
parking brake whether the engine is run-
ning or off, pull
on the control lever A
.
Application of the parking brake is con-
fi rmed by:



- illumination of the braking warn-
ing lamp and of the warning
lamp P
in the control lever A
,

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
With the ignition on or the engine run-
ning, to release the parking brake,
press
on the brake
pedal
or the ac-
celerator, pull then release
the control
lever A
.
Full application of the parking brake is
confi rmed by:


- the braking warning lamp and
of the warning lamp P
in the
the control lever A
going off,
If you pull the control lever A

without pressing the brake ped-
al, the parking brake will not be
released and a warning lamp
will come on in the instrument
panel.

Manual application Maximum application

If necessary, you can make a maxi-
mum application
of the parking brake.
It is obtained by means of a long pull

on the control lever A
, until you see the
message "Handbrake on" and a beep
is heard.

In the case of towing, a loaded
vehicle or parking on a gradi-
ent, make a maximum applica-
tion of the parking brake then turn the
front wheels towards the pavement
and engage a gear when you park.
After a maximum application, the re-
lease time will be longer.


Before leaving the vehicle,
check that parking brake
warning lamp in the instru-
ment panel is on, not fl ashing.

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).

- display of the message
"Handbrake on".
- display of the message
"Handbrake off".

Particular situations

In certain situations (e.g. start-
ing the engine), the parking brake
can automatically alter its force. This
is normal operation.
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 park-
ing brake by pulling
then releasing

control lever A
. The full release of
the parking brake is confi rmed by the
warning lamp in the control lever A

and the warning lamp in the instru-
ment panel going off and the display
of the message "Handbrake off".
If a parking brake fault occurs while
applied
or if the battery runs fl at, an
emergency release is always pos-
sible.

EMERGENCY BRAKING


In the event of a failure of the main ser-
vice brake or in an exceptional situation
(e.g. driver taken ill, under instruction,
etc) a continuous pull
on the control
lever
A
will stop the vehicle
.
The dynamic stability control (DSC)
provides stability during emergency
braking.
If there is a fault with the emergency
braking, one of the following messages
will be displayed:


- "Parking brake faulty".

- "Parking brake control faulty".
If a failure of the DSC system is
signalled by the illumination of
this warning lamp, then brak-
ing stability is not guaranteed.
In this event, stability must be
assured by the driver by repeating al-
ternate "pull release" actions on control
lever A
.

The emergency braking must
only be used in exceptional
circumstances.

Emergency release


)
Immobilise the vehicle (or keep
it stationary, if the brake pedal is
pressed), with the engine running,
by engaging fi rst gear (manual gear-
box), position P
(automatic gearbox)
or M
or R
(6-speed electronic gear
control gearbox).

)
Switch off the engine but leave the igni-
tion on. If it is impossible to immobilise
the vehicle, do not operate the control
and contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop urgently.

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

)
Immobilise the vehicle by placing
blocks in front and behind one of the
front 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.

)
Pierce the protective cover C
on the
tube D
with the release device.


)
Place the release device in the tube D
.


)
Turn the release device clockwise.

For safety reasons
, it is essential

to continue turning the device as far
as it will go. The parking brake is
released.

)
Remove the release device and store
it with the blocks in the toolbox.

For safety reasons, you must
contact a PEUGEOT dealer
as soon as possible to replace
the protective cover.
Following an emergency unlocking,
immobilisation of the vehicle is no
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.
Take no action, either on the control
lever A
, or stopping or starting the
engine while the release device is
engaged.
Take care not to allow moisture or
dust in the proximity of the protective
cover.

In the event of the electric parking brake
malfunctioning or the battery running
fl at, an emergency manual device can
release the parking brake.
The operation of the parking brake re-
initialises when the ignition is switched
off then on again. If the reinitialisation
of the parking brake proves impossible,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop.
The subsequent time required for appli-
cation may be longer than during nor-
mal 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 system only operates 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 system cannot be
deactivated.
Operation

On an ascending slope, with the ve-
hicle stationary, the vehicle is held
for a momentarily when you release
the brake pedal:



- provided you are in fi rst gear or neu-
tral on a manual gearbox,

- provided you are in position A
or M

on an electronic gear control gear-
box,

- provided you are in position D
or M

on an automatic gearbox.
On a descending slope, with the ve-
hicle stationary and reverse gear
engaged, the vehicle is held momen-
tarily 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, apply the
parking brake manually then ensure
that the parking brake warning lamp
(and the warning lamp P
in the lever
of the electric parking brake) are on
fi xed (not fl ashing).


If a fault in the system occurs, these
warning lamps come on. Contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed work-
shop to have the system checked.
