For safety reasons, automatic release

Brief stop

To apply the electronic parking brake

manually (when stopping at a red light,

or stopping when the engine is running,

etc.): pull and release the switch 4. The

brake is released as soon as the vehi-

cle is started up again.

– switch off the engine by pressing the

engine start/stop button 1 or by turn-

ing the ignition key 2;

– manually release the electronic park-

ing brake;

Never leave your vehicle

without moving the selec-

tor lever to position P and

switching off the engine.

This is because when the vehicle is

stationary with the engine running

and a gear engaged, the vehicle

may begin to move if you acceler-

ate.

release the brake pedal and the

switch 4.

There is a risk of accidents.

Note: this video is not a substitute

If no lights or sounds are ap-

in the instrument panel. This

indicates that it is essential

to stop immediately (as soon as traf-

vehicle is correctly immobilised and

contact an approved Dealer.

It is therefore essential to

immobilise the vehicle by

engaging first gear (manual
