In some situations, for example when it is extremely cold or when towing (e.g. caravan, breakdown), it may be necessary to deactivate automatic operation of the system.► Start the engine.► Apply the parking brake with the control lever, if it is released.► Take your foot fully off the brake pedal.► Push and hold the control lever in the release direction for at least 10 seconds and no more than 15 seconds.► Release the control lever.
► Press and hold the brake pedal.► Pull the control lever in the application direction for 2 seconds.Deactivation of the automatic functions is confirmed by illumination of this indicator lamp in the instrument panel.► Release the control lever and the brake pedal.
From now on, the parking brake can only be applied and released manually using the control lever.Repeat this procedure to reactivate automatic operation (confirmed by the indicator lamp in the instrument panel going off).
Emergency braking
In the event of a fault with the brake pedal or in an exceptional situation (e.g. driver taken ill, driver under instruction), a continuous pull on the electric parking brake control lever will brake the vehicle. Braking takes place while the control lever is being pulled; it is interrupted when 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.

If your vehicle has an automatic gearbox, do not try to start the engine by pushing the vehicle.
Gear efficiency indicator
(Depending on engine.)This system helps reduce fuel consumption by recommending the most appropriate gear.
Operation
Depending on the driving situation and the vehicle's equipment, the system may advise to skip one or more gears.Gear shift recommendations should not be considered compulsory. In fact, the road layout, the traffic density and safety remain the deciding factors when choosing the best gear. The driver therefore remains responsible for deciding whether or not to follow the indications issued by the system.This function cannot be deactivated.
NOTIC E
With an automatic gearbox, the system is only active in manual operation.
The information appears in the instrument panel, in the form of an ascending or descending arrow and the recommended gear.
NOTIC E
The system adapts its gear shift recommendation according to the driving conditions (slope, load, etc.) and the driver’s
requirements (power, acceleration, braking, etc.).The system never suggests:– engaging first gear;– engaging reverse.
Stop & Start
The Stop & Start function puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during phases when the vehicle is stopped (red lights, queues, etc.). The engine restarts automatically - START mode - as soon as the driver wishes to move off again.Primarily designed for urban use, the function is intended to reduce fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.The function does not affect the functionalities of the vehicle, in particular the braking.

Under-inflation detection
This system automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.It compares the information given by the wheel speed sensors with reference values, which must be reinitialised every time the tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed.The system triggers an alert as soon as it detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one or more tyres.
WARNI NG
Under-inflation detection does not replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.This system does not avoid the need to regularly check the tyre pressures (including the spare wheel) as well as before a long journey.Driving with under-inflated tyres, particularly in adverse conditions (heavy load, high speed, long journey):– worsens road-holding.– lengthens braking distances.– causes premature wear of the tyres.– increases fuel consumption.
