gine off.
XTRONIC transmission vehicles:
The parking brake does not apply automatically. If
applied manually, the parking brake will automati-
cally release when you press the accelerator with
the shift lever in Drive (D) or Reverse (R), provided:
•The driver is wearing a seat belt, or
•The driver accelerates away within 5 seconds of
shifting from Park (P) or Neutral (N) to Drive (D)
or Reverse (R).
If you have tried to start driving the vehicle while not
wearing a seat belt, you will need to put on your seat
belt and place the shift lever in Drive (D) or Reverse
(R) again before the parking brake will release auto-
matically.
If you have a vehicle with XTRONIC Transmission,
and you require automatic parking brake applica-
