Parking the vehicle with the brake
released
WARNI NG
In very cold conditions (ice), applying the parking brake is not recommended.To immobilise the vehicle, engage a gear or place the chocks against one of the wheels.
NOTIC E
With an automatic gearbox, mode P is automatically selected when the ignition is switched off. The wheels are blocked.For more information on Free-wheeling, refer
to the corresponding section.
NOTIC E
With an automatic gearbox, while mode N is selected, opening the driver’s door triggers an audible signal. It stops when the driver's door closes again.
Deactivating automatic
operation
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.

► You can revert to automatic operation at any time by pressing button M again.The indicator lamp for the button goes off.
NOTIC E
In manual mode, there is no need to release the accelerator pedal while changing gear.
NOTIC E
It is only possible to change from one gear to another if the vehicle speed and engine speed permit.
NOTIC E
If the engine speed is too low or too high, the selected gear flashes for a few seconds, then the gear actually engaged is shown.When the vehicle is stationary or moving very slowly, the gearbox automatically selects gear M1.
NOTIC E
To preserve the brakes while descending a steep incline, use engine braking to reduce
your speed (change down or select a lower gear).Keeping the brake pedal pressed continuously for long periods can overheat the brakes, with the risk of damaging the braking system or making it inoperative.Only use the brakes when necessary, to slow or stop the vehicle.
NOTIC E
Depending on the road configuration (e.g. mountainous road), manual operation may be preferable.Automatic operation may not always be suitable, and does not enable engine braking.
Invalid value during manual
operation
This symbol is displayed if a gear is not engaged correctly (gear selector between two positions).► Place the selector "correctly" at a position.
Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, select position P then apply the parking brake to immobilise the vehicle.
NOTIC E
A point of resistance may be noticed when moving to position P.If the selector is not in position P when the driver's door is opened or approximately 45 seconds after the ignition is switched off, an audible signal sounds and a message appears.► Return the gear selector to position P; the audible signal stops and the message disappears.
WARNI NG
On a steep slope with a loaded vehicle, press the brake pedal, select position P, apply the parking brake then release the brake pedal.
WARNI NG
In all circumstances, ensure that the selector is in position P before leaving your vehicle.
Operating fault
When the ignition is on, a message appears in the instrument panel screen to indicate a
gearbox fault.In this case, the gearbox switches to back-up mode and is locked in 3rd gear. You may feel a substantial knock when changing from P to R
