Emergency braking
The emergency braking should only be
used in an exceptional situation. In the event of a failure in braking using the
brake pedal or in an exceptional situation (e.g.
driver taken ill, driver under instruction, etc.), a
continuous pull on the control lever will brake
the vehicle. Braking takes place while the
control lever is being pulled. It is interrupted if
the control lever is released.
The ABS and DSC systems ensure stability of
the vehicle during emergency braking.
If the emergency braking malfunctions, the
message "Parking brake control faulty" will be
displayed in the instrument panel.
If the ABS and DSC systems malfunction,
signalled by the illumination of one or both
warning lamps in the instrument panel, then
stability of the vehicle is no longer guaranteed.
In this event, stability must be assured by the
driver by repeating alternate "pull-release"
actions on the control lever until the vehicle is
immobilised.
