MONITORING

Tyre under-inflation detection

The tyre under-infl ation detection sys-
tem is a driving aid which informs you
of the state of your tyres.
It does not replace either vigilance or
responsibility on the part of the driver.

Economy mode

After switching off the engine, some sys-
tems (radio, wipers, electric windows,
opening roof, electric seats, telephone,
video, interior lighting, motorised tail-
gate, etc.) are supplied electrically for a
maximum of no more than around one
hour, so as to avoid discharging the
battery.
This period may be reduced considerably
if the battery's state of charge is low.
Once this period is over, a message
is displayed in the instrument panel
screen and the active functions are
placed on standby.
These functions will be automatically re-
activated when the vehicle is restarted.

Electric parking brake

Never leave a child alone inside
the vehicle with the ignition on,
as they could release the park-
ing brake.

Hill start assist


Manual operation
The MANUAL application/release of
the parking brake is always possible
by pulling/pushing the control lever B
,
keeping your foot on the brake pedal.
Before leaving the ve-
hicle, check that warn-
ing lamp A (!)
(red) in
the instrument panel is
on fi xed (not fl ashing) and that warn-
ing lamp P
(red) in the control lever B

is on.
If you leave the vehicle with the
engine still running, apply the
parking brake manually. Do not leave the vehicle while
it is being held in the temporary
immobilisation hill start assist
phase. To aid starting on a gradient, your ve-
hicle is equipped with a system which
keeps it immobilised for a short time
(about 2 seconds), the approximate
time it takes to move your foot from the
brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.
This system is only active when:


- The vehicle is completely stationary,
with your foot on the brake pedal.

- In certain conditions on a gradient.

- With the driver's door closed. Before leaving the ve-
hicle, check that warn-
ing lamp A (!)
(red) in
the instrument panel is
on fi xed (not fl ashing) and that warn-
ing lamp P
(red) in the control lever B

is on.
Automatic operation
The electric parking brake releases au-
tomatically and progressively when you
press the accelerator. With the vehicle
stationary, the parking brake is auto-
matically applied when the engine is
switched off.
