the parking brake lamps are on (not
flashing) in the instrument panel and in
the control lever.

To immobilise the vehicle without
applying the parking brake, before
switching off the ignition, place the gear
selector in position A
or R
.
If the battery is flat, it is essential
to place a chock against one of the
wheels to immobilise the vehicle.

Before switching off the Hybrid4 system, place
the gear selector in position N.
When switching off the Hybrid4 system, the
electric parking brake is applied automatically.
If the automatic function is deactivated, apply
the parking brake manually to immobilise the
vehicle.

pedal when engaging for ward drive or
reverse.
This function is deactivated if the
driver's door is opened. To reactivate
it, close the door and then press the
brake or accelerator pedal.

flashing of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message
in the instrument panel screen, indicates a

Weights and towed loads (in kg)



*
The kerb weight is equal to the unladen weight + driver (75 kg).

**
The weight of the braked trailer can be increased, within the GTW limit, if the GV W of the towing vehicle is reduced by an equal amount; warning,
towing using a lightly loaded towing vehicle may have an adverse effect on its road holding.
To make use of the 300 kg load transfer, the driver must be alone in the vehicle with no luggage in the vehicle.

The GTW and towed load values indicated are valid up to a maximum altitude of 1 000 metres; the towed load mentioned must be reduced by 10 % for
each additional 1 000 metres of altitude.
The maximum authorised speed is reduced when towing (comply with the legislation in force in your country).
High ambient temperatures may result in a reduction in the per formance of the vehicle to protect the engine; if the ambient temperature is above 37 °C,
limit the towed load.
