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.► Use the control lever to apply the parking brake, if it is released.► Take your foot fully off the brake pedal.► Hold the control lever pressed in the release direction for between 10 and a maximum of 15 seconds.► Release the control lever.► Depress and hold the brake pedal.► Pull the control lever in the application direction for 2 seconds.This indicator lamp on the instrument panel comes on to confirm deactivation of
the automatic functions.► Release the control lever and the brake pedal.

158
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 on the instrument panel going off).
Emergency braking
If depressing the brake pedal fails to provide
effective braking or in exceptional circumstances (e.g. driver unwell, assisted driving), the vehicle can be braked by sustained pulling on the electric parking brake control. Braking continues for as long as the control is kept pulled, and ceases when the control is released.The ABS and DSC systems stabilise the vehicle during emergency braking.If emergency braking malfunctions, the message "Parking brake fault" will be displayed on the instrument panel.If the ABS and DSC systems malfunction, indicated by lighting one or both warning lamps on the instrument panel, the vehicle’s stability is no longer ensured.► In this case, ensure the vehicle's stability by successive and repeated "pull-release" actions on the electric parking brake control until the vehicle comes to a complete stop.
Hill start assist
System which briefly keeps the vehicle stationary (for approximately 2 seconds) when making a hill start, while you transfer your foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.It is only active when:– The vehicle is completely stationary, with your foot on the brake pedal,
– Certain slope conditions are met,– The driver’s door is closed.
WARNI NG
Do not leave the vehicle while it is being held temporarily by hill start assist.If someone needs to get out of the vehicle with the engine running, apply the parking brake manually. After that, ensure that the parking brake indicator lamp and the indicator lamp P in the electric parking brake control lever are on fixed.
WARNI NG
The hill start assist function cannot be deactivated. However, use of the parking brake to immobilise the vehicle interrupts its
operation.
