SAFE HOLD
It is a safety function that automatically
engages the electric parking brake in the
event of a dangerous condition for the
vehicle.
If:
the vehicle speed is below 3 km/h;the gear lever is not at P (Park)
(versions with automatic transmission);
the driver's seat belt is not fastened;the driver side door is open;no attempted operation of the brake
pedal or the accelerator pedal, or, in
versions with manual gearbox, the clutch
pedal is detected;
the parking brake engages automatically
to prevent the vehicle movement.
The Safe Hold function can be
temporarily disabled by pressing the
switch located on the central tunnel and
the brake pedal at the same time, with
the vehicle stationary and the driver side
door open.
Once disabled, the function will activate
again when the vehicle speed reaches
20 km/h or the ignition device is moved
to STOP and then to MAR.
