Emergency unlocking In the event of the electric parking
brake malfunctioning or the battery
r u n n i n g fl a t , a n e m e r g e n c y m e c h a -
nism can unlock the parking brake.
Immobilise the vehicle, with the
e n g i n e r u n n i n g , b y e n g a g i n g fi r s t
gear (manual gearbox), posi-
tion P (automatic gearbox) or M
or R (6-speed electronic gear-
box).
Switch off the engine, but leave
the ignition on.
If the vehicle cannot be immo- bilised, do not do anything and
contact a CITROËN dealer with-
out delay.
Fetch the vehicle blocks E and
the unlocking tool F (handle)
from the toolbox.
Immobilise the vehicle by placing
blocks E at the front and at the
rear of one of the rear wheels.
Slide the front left-hand seat
back as far as possible.
L i f t u p t h e fl o o r p l u g B
on the
carpet in front of the seat.
Pierce the tab C on the tube D
with the unlocking tool F .
Place the end of the handle F in
the tube D .
Turn the unlocking tool F clock-
wise.
For safety reasons , it is
essential to continue turning the
device as far as it will go or until
you hear a knocking noise. The
parking brake is released.
Remove the unlocking tool F and
store it with the blocks E in the
toolbox.
- The operation of the parking brake reinitialises when the ig-
nition is switched off then on
again. If the reinitialisation of the
parking brake proves impossi-
ble, contact a CITROËN dealer.
- The subsequent time required for application may be longer
than during normal operation.
For safety reasons, after this manoeuvre it is essential to cont act a CITROËN dealer urgently to have the plug
replaced.
Following an emergency unlocking, immobilisation of the vehi cle is no longer guaranteed once the manual emer-
gency unlocking has been deployed and the manual control doe s not allow the re-application of your parking
brake.
Take no action, either on control A , or stopping starting the engine while the unlocking to ol F is engaged.
Take care not to allow moisture or dust in the proximity of th e plug.
