To move out of position P, you must de-
press the brake pedal before pressing
unlocking button 2.
With the foot on the brake pedal (warn-
ing light
c on the display 3 goes out),
move the lever out of position P.
The vehicle can only start of the
gear selector is in position P.
The vehicle can only be started if
the charging cord is unplugged from
the vehicle.
Obstructions to the driver
On the driver’s side, only
use mats suitable for the
vehicle, attached with the
pre-fitted components, and check
the fitting regularly. Do not lay one
mat on top of another. There is a
risk of wedging the pedals
Put the lever 1 to position D or R.
The vehicle moves forward once
you release the brake pedal (without
pressing on the accelerator pedal).

Parking the vehicle
When the vehicle is at a standstill,
place the lever in position P: the drive
wheels are mechanically locked by the
transmission.
Apply the handbrake.
GEAR CONTROL (2/2)/HANDBRAKE
Operating fault
When setting off, if the lever is locked
in position P, even though you are de-
pressing the brake pedal and pressing
the unlocking button 2, the lever can still
be released manually. To do this, unclip
the cover 4 at the base of the lever.
Simultaneously press at the location 7
and the unlocking button 2 on the lever.
In the event of an impact to
the underside of the vehicle
(e.g.: striking a post, raised
kerb or other street furni-
ture), this may result in damage to
the vehicle (e.g.: twisted axle), the
electrical circuit or the traction bat-
tery.
Do not touch the circuit elements or
any fluids or liquids.
To prevent any risk of accident,
have your vehicle checked by an
authorised dealer.
Risk of serious injury or electric
shock and risk to life.
Handbrake
To release:
Pull the lever 6 up slightly, press
button 5 and then lower the lever to the
floor.
To apply:
Pull lever 6 upwards and make sure the
vehicle is immobilised.
When stationary and de-
pending on the slope and/or
vehicle load, it may be nec-
essary to pull up the hand-
brake at least two extra notches and
engage position P.
Make sure that the hand-
brake is properly released
when driving (red indicator
light off), otherwise over-
heating may occur.

ABS (anti-lock braking
system)
Under heavy braking, the ABS prevents
the wheels from locking, allowing the
stopping distance to be managed and
keeping control of the vehicle.
Under these circumstances, the vehi-
cle can be steered to avoid an obstacle
whilst braking. In addition, this system
can increase stopping distances, par-
ticularly on roads with low surface grip
(wet ground etc.).
You will feel a pulsation through the
brake pedal each time the system is
activated. The ABS does not in any way
improve the vehicle’s physical perform-
ance relating to the road surface and
roadholding. It is still essential to follow
the rules of good driving practice (such
as driving at a safe distance from the
vehicle in front etc.).
These include:
– the ABS
(anti-lock braking
system);
– the electronic stability program
ESC with understeer control and
traction control;
– emergency braking assistance with (depending on the vehicle)
braking anticipation;
– regenerative braking system.
In an emergency, apply firm and
continuous pressure to the brake
pedal. There is no need to pump
it repeatedly. The ABS will modu-
late the force applied in the braking
system.
These functions are an ad-
ditional aid in the event of
critical driving conditions,
enabling the vehicle behav-
iour to be adapted to suit the driving
conditions.
However, the functions do not take
the place of the driver. They do
not increase the vehicle’s limits
and should not encourage you
to drive more quickly. Therefore,
they can under no circumstances
replace the vigilance or responsibil-
ity of the driver when manoeuvring
the vehicle (the driver must always
be ready for sudden incidents which
may occur when driving).
Your braking systems
are partially operational.
However, it is dangerous
to brake suddenly and
it is essential to stop immediately,
as soon as traffic conditions allow.
Contact an approved dealer.
Operating faults
–
© and x lit up on the in-
strument panel, (depending on the
vehicle) alongside messages “Check
ABS”, “Check braking system” and
“Check ESC”: ABS, ESC and emer-
gency brake assist are deactivated.
Braking is always enabled;
–
x, D, © and û lit
up on the instrument panel alongside
the message “Braking system fault”:
this indicates a fault in the braking
system.
In both cases, please consult an
Authorised Dealer.
