the correct operation and durability of
the mechanical components of your
vehicle, engine and gearbox, it is

-

"
Parking brake control faulty". If a failure of the DSC system is
signalled by the illumination of this
warning lamp, then braking stability
is not guaranteed.
Emergency braking must only be used
