DRIVING

Automatic application,
engine off
With the vehicle stationary, the park-
ing brake is automatically applied
when the engine is switched off.

is confi rmed by:


-
the illumination of warning
lamp P
in control lever A

and in the instrument panel,

Automatic release

The electric parking brake releases
automatically and progressively

when you press the accelerator:


)
Manual gearbox
(fi rst gear or
reverse gear engaged): press
down fully on the clutch pedal
then press on the accelerator
pedal and move off.

)
Automatic gearbox
: accelerate
with the selector in position D

may release the parking brake.


Maximum application

If necessary, you can use maximum

message "Parking brake on" and an
audible signal is heard.

Maximum application is essential:



- when towing a caravan or a trail-
er, if the automatic functions are
activated but you are applying
the parking brake manually,

- when the gradient you are parked
on is variable in its effect (e.g. on
a ferry, in a lorry, during towing),


- when towing, when loaded or
when parking on a gradient, turn
the front wheels towards the
pavement and engage a gear
when you park,

- after a maximum application, the
release time will be longer.

Before leaving the vehicle,
check that warning lamp P

in the instrument panel is
on fi xed, not fl ashing.
Never leave a child alone inside the
vehicle with the ignition on, as they
could release the parking brake.
- the display of a message
"Parking brake on" in the multi-
function screen.
The normal operating sound will con-
fi rm to you the application/release of
the electric parking brake.

tains the vehicle speed programmed
by the driver, without any action on
the accelerator pedal.

manually: the vehicle speed must
be at least 25 mph (approximately
40 km/h) and you must engage:


- fourth gear on a manual gear-
box,

- second gear, in manual mode,
on an electronic or automatic
gearbox,

- position A
on an electronic gear-
box or D
on an automatic gearbox.


Steering mounted controls

The cruise control switches are lo-
cated on the left-hand side of the
steering wheel. The programmed information is
grouped together in zone A
of the
instrument panel screen.

panel

Activation
You can then release the accelera-
tor pedal. The vehicle will automati-
cally keep to the speed chosen.
The speed of your vehicle may vary
slightly in relation to that memo-
rised.
You can adjust the memorised speed
in the instrument panel screen by
pressing:


)
button 4
to increase the speed,

)
button 2
to decrease the speed.
Successive presses modify the
cruise speed in steps of 1 mph
(1 km/h) and a sustained press in
steps of 3 mph (5 km/h).


Deactivation



)
Either by pressing the brake or
the clutch pedal.

)
Or by pressing button 3
.

)
Or if either the ESP or the ASR
system is active.
The cruise control is not active if the
gear lever is in neutral. On selection of the
function via control 1,
no cruise speed has
yet been memorised.



Programming

Rotate the control 1
to the "REG"

position.
Once the desired speed has been
reached using the accelerator, press
button 2
or 4
. The cruise speed is
then memorised. It is displayed in
zone A
of the instrument panel. These actions cause
the information "OFF"

to appear in the instru-
ment panel screen.
These actions do not
cancel the cruise speed
which remains displayed
in the instrument panel.
The cruise control cannot, in any cir-
cumstances, take the place of the
observance of speed limits or of the vig-
ilance and responsibility of the driver.
